Biography
My research explores concepts and practices of justice in the context of global environmental change, with an empirical focus on grassroots, community and activist responses to climate change. Prior to joining Macquarie University, I held postdoctoral positions at Durham University, UK and City University of Hong Kong where I conducted research on low carbon urban transitions and climate governance; NGO discourses of energy justice; low carbon communities and social justice; and energy vulnerability in communities. My current projects focus on the politics and governance of urban climate justice across the Asia-Pacific region. I am currently the Director of Education in the School of Social Sciences.
Teaching
I currently convene and teach into the following units:
- GEOP1080 Urban Planet: Cities and Planning in the Anthropocene (Convenor)
- SSCI1000 Introducing Social Science
