Teaching, Learning and Unlearning
Transformative societal change requires us to collectively imagine alternative futures and consider how we engage with co-creating the future. So in my teaching, I support both learning and unlearning. Unlearning is the creative process of letting go of knowledge and knowledge frameworks that may be constraining our sense of possibility and restricting our appreciation for the potential for transformative change.
