Currently Professor in Environmental Political Theory at Newcastle University, he was born in Newcastle upon Tyne. He studied philosophy, politics and economics at Balliol College, Oxford, before returning to Newcastle to complete a PhD at Newcastle University. He has worked in the School of Geography, Politics and Sociology at Newcastle University since 2001.

He has published widely on environmental justice, liberal environmentalism, environmental citizenship, democracy and the environment. His most recent work has been on local and global climate justice.

Elizabeth Brooks

Following two years as a research associate at Newcastle University, working on environmental governance in the School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape, she moved to take up a post-doctoral research fellowship jointly between Glasgow University and the Crichton Carbon Centre in southern Scotland, where she is currently working on a resource to support the development of the environmental sector across the region. Her research interests include land reform, coastal resilience and the transition to a low carbon society.

Helen Coulson

PhD candidate in the School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape at Newcastle University, Helen has a background in geography and urban planning. Her current research draws upon urban political ecology and feminist care ethics to explore community food growing spaces in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Simin Davoudi

Professor of Environmental Policy and Planning, and Associate Director of the Institute for Sustainability at Newcastle University, her research is at the interface of society and ecology and focuses on questions of spatiality, governance, politics and justice. She is past president of the Association of the European Schools of Planning, Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences and the Royal Society of Arts and held visiting professorships at European, American and Australian universities. She has led the UK Office of Deputy Prime Ministers Planning Research Network; served as expert advisor for UK government departments and EU Directorates General; been a member of the 2014 sub-panel of the UK Research Excellence Framework, several research councils assessment panels and universities advisory boards in the UK and Europe.

Simin is co-editor of the Journal of Environmental Planning and Management .

Jan Deckers

Jan is a Senior Lecturer in Bioethics at Newcastle Universitys School of Medical Education. The majority of his research is on the ethical issues associated with reproduction, genetics, stem cell research, environmental issues such as climate change and the consumption of animal products. Publications include: (2013) In defence of the vegan project, Journal of Bioethical Inquiry , 10(2): 187-95; (2011) Could some people be wronged by contracting swine flu?

Bob Giddings

Chair of Architecture and Urban Design in the Department of Architecture and the Built Environment at Northumbria University, Newcastle upon Tyne, his research in urban design is based on a post-city structuring approach to cities. A focus for this work has been the design and use of public squares in European city centres, which ranges from geometric configurations, pedestrian activity and microclimate, to the privatisation of public space and alternative informal uses of the public realm. An important factor is the perception of the city centre by different user groups, and the way in which citizens across the demographic divide can be accommodated without conflict.

Rose Gilroy

Professor of Ageing Policy and Planning in the School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape at Newcastle University, Roses research explores the impact of the ageing population, particularly in relation to planning and housing. Rose explores how place supports everyday life in later life. As a planner, she is interested in the transactional relationship between people and their environment that embraces how people individually and collectively may influence their environments. Rose Gilroys research has included research in urban China, rural Japan and India. Locally, she is a member of Newcastle Age Friendly City, working to make Newcastle a better place in which to grow old.
