#AcademicVenting Surreally, I am on my way to a big conference, Anthropology and Education. Doing a panel on regenerative anthropology. But the conference cost an obscene £320, that I only secured at the last second - we don’t have a research budget anymore, but suddenly we did get one now (in June). Meanwhile of course also #redundancy looming. We so desperately need a new everything. #RegenerativeAnthropology, #RegenerativeAcademia, everything.

@natureworks I can't thank you enough for this. Yes, 100% applicable to a #ForestGarden. In fact, your reply made me realise that my whole understanding of anthropology is, actually, centred in forest gardens; that's what I do, basically! and forest-garden centred thinking is core to my idea of #RegenerativeAnthropology, Yesterday I mentioned this in a talk about #RegenerativeAcademia and someone said: so we need Forest Universities, like Forest Schools 💚. Wanted to share that with you!
