My research deals with human subjectivity, knowledge creation, learning and educational politics, as well as with issues of young people\u2019s participation and spatial justice in the city. I am interested in what counts as knowledge, and how learning takes place with(in) various geographical and ideological landscapes. Inspired by my participatory research on young people\u2019s practices of hanging out, I approach learning as an ongoing and non-linear geographical process that does not begin or end with humans. I use feminist posthuman and non-representational theorisation to study the multiple forces that are at work in the various encounters from which knowing, participation and everyday affective politics emerge. I am particularly interested in the re-organizing power of enchantment, a radical encounter that makes it possible to ontologically re-think the world. I argue that creating \u201cpedagogical spaces of enchantment\u201d in education is critical for transformative encounters and learning in the Anthropocene.<\/p>\n
