I am currently completing research on
cultural creativity, ecology and educating for responsible global
citizenship with the support of a Killam Post-doctoral Research
Fellowship. The book is entitled "Educating
Ecological World Citizens." I have just published
an article in the autumn 2001 issue of the on-line journal "Language
and Literacy" on the pedagogical role of poetry
in Tibetan education and popular resistance. I have two pieces
appearing in sequence in upcoming editions of the GEOEC newsletter,
and am preparing a public advocacy proposal on Earth-rights for
the federal government with William E. Rees of the School for
Community and Regional Planning at the University of British
Columbia.
