Biography

I am a Professor of Community Development and Youth in the School of Education. I am a qualified community and youth work practitioner and have worked in the UK and abroad with a range of communities and young people. 

My current research falls into two categories. The first focuses on social justice and equality, analysing how youth and community practitioners can create positive social change. The second area of interest focusses on the impact of violence and conflict on individuals and communities. 

My academic teaching and research focuses on Community Development, Youth Work, Social Justice, Equality and Rights-based work. I teach across undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in the School of Education. 

Additional current roles include:

  • Research and Training Group Lead for People, Place and Social Change.
  • Member of the Executive Committee of the Community, Learning and Development (CLD) Standards Board for Scotland
  • Board of Directors for the Professional Association for Lecturers in Community and Youth Work (Research Director)

Research interests

My research is focused broadly within the fields of Youth Work and Community Development.

I am currently working on a project analysing Eucational Peacebuilding in Medellin and Acapulco: Understanding the role of education, culture and learning in responding to crises. 

https://www.gla.ac.uk/schools/education/research/currentresearchprojects/educationalpeacebuildinginmedellinandacapulco/  

 

I have also recently undertaken work in a number of areas (please see publications) specifically relating to young people and communities, including-

  • Social Justice and Equality practice and policy
  • Youth work and community development as emancipatory praxis
  • Community Development and Peacebuilding
  • The impact of Brexit on youth work
  • Domestic abuse
  • Coercive control
  • Youth justice
