Presentation
Eileen will present an overview of her work and reflect on themes and threads that have recurred in some of the research projects and development programmes in which she has been involved. These include: built environment education, design education, sense of place, intelligence of feeling, critical study and young people’s participation in environmental change. A key strategy has been action research.
