I am a Children’s Geographer with expertise in children and young people’s everyday experiences of urban change in diverse contexts (UK, India and Brazil).   I have published on public space, participation, child-friendly cities; as well as theoretically engaging pieces on young people’s relationships with diverse natures and urban infrastructures.  I hold key positions within the field, namely the Chair of the GCYFRG and an editorship position for the journal Children’s Geography.
