Tuesday, 24 March 2015. Research Collective is here! Public Space, Young People and "Violence".

VOICES THAT SHAKE!: November 2014
http://voicesthatshake.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 18 November 2014. Climate change: who should we trust? Tommy Clark, "Harnessing Nature". Taking part in this event and also participating in SHAKE! Has shown me there are alternative ways to communicate, and that experiential knowledge and telling our stories can have as much –indeed, probably more- impact than passively listening to expert opinions purposely convoluted to distance us from engaging properly with important issues, just in case we pose a threat. So nothing or no one can be sure.
