In this new episode, I have an imperfectly perfect conversation with Pen Williams, Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (AFHEA) and Doctoral Researcher in Education - Critical Citizenship and Sustainability at the University of Bristol. Pen won the Nature, Outdoor Learning and Play Special Interest Group (SIG) Best Presentation Award at the British Educational Research Association (BERA) Annual Conference in 2024. You can find out more here

In this conversation:

• Pen shares more about her educational journey and her role as an English Language Teacher.
• We then explore her PhD work in Education and Critical Citizenship and Sustainability. We also discuss the difference between Citizenship and Global Citizenship.
• Pen also presents some of the initial findings of her research with young people and emphasises the importance of creating safe spaces for discussions at a time when we are becoming more polarised and separated than ever.

And so much more...

I invite you to come and join us and to listen into this deLIGHTfull conversation with Pen.

I thoroughly enJOYed discussing all the above with her and I have no doubt that you will too.
