Our paper explores how people from minority ethnic backgrounds experience urban and rural green spaces. Recounting both positive and negative experiences, participants expressed nuanced ideas about exclusion, empowerment, and agency.

One of my favourites from @akpalmer.bsky.social's PhD research!

It was a really wonderful summit you put together. So happy that I was able to attend, and thanks for letting Pele and I come along at the last minute!

I have only just joined, and my feed is full of cats and interesting plants. I am pleased with this.

And in true academic fashion, my first post is shameless self-promotion.
