There's no place like ...

A podcast by that explores place and our relationship to it by the Australian Centre for Culture, Environment, Society and Space at the University of Wollongong.

Author: UOW's Australian Centre for Culture, Environment, Society and Space

Come on an audio field trip with leading geographers from the Australian Centre for Culture, Environment, Society and Space at the University of Wollongong. In each episode, we go knee deep into some of the forgotten corners of the Illawarra and beyond. We explore how places are transformed by humans and others. We think through questions like: what might a more sustainable future look like, as 'place' is affected by natural disasters and invasive species? What is our relationship with nature today? And what can Indigenous connections to country teach us about these places? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Entanglements - Jenny Atchison - Urban Trees
Episode 2
Tuesday, 7 September, 2021

Melbourne City Council assigned email addresses to the 70 000 urban trees living in the city so that the public could email the council any maintenance concerns abou th tetrees. But to the surprise of council workers the emails the trees received were surprisingly personal and even affectionate, with people expressing their gratitude and love for their local trees.In this latest Entanglements lecture, Dr Jenny Atchison a geographer with ACCESS has been part of a unique research project with social sciences and arts researchers at Melbourne Uni and the City of Melbourne. The project involved reading the emails and studying the data to consider how people living in Melbourne feel about the trees. But importantly, the project is also looking at how the city's urban forest can be made more resilient in the face of climate change and an ageing tree population. This episode was recorded live at the Wollongong Art Gallery on June 3, 2021. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
