The future of outdoor informal leisure spaces
This is a collaborative project with Dr Katherine King (Bournemouth University) and Prof Andrew Church (University of Bedfordshire) which is investigating the practices of youth participation and access to nearby nature spaces for informal leisure and sport. It seeks to inform understandings of the democratic management of public space and the contribution of informal cultures of youth environmental citizenship to the making of space.
