Conducting research involving citizen participants are sometimes restricted and confusing. Collected data samples has shown areas of miscommunication, restrictions, and tools that are seen by some as improper. In an upcoming presentation this month in April, the speaker will discuss areas of concern when recruiting participants, and how to improve methods of collecting data in citizen science. We’re really looking forward to learning some great ideas on this one at PloCC!
Its our time to present our research on favourite places at the PloCC centre in Wales! In our discussion, we will explain why people have favourite places and why it is important to protect and preserve favourite places! This upcoming virtual presentation on Wednesday 13th of July 2022 will be exciting for all those in attendance. We encourage you to participate at the seminar! See you there!
Time to check how well we’re doing when it comes to nature, the arts and wellbeing! This upcoming PloCC seminar on Wednesday 8th of June 2022 at 11:10 am should get our thinking caps on, finding ways to be more “eco-capable”! Should be a good seminar! See you there!
The urbanisation of certain races in the Americas is a reflection of human movement from rural to urban areas. This is common amongst tribal peoples who search for better living opportunities. Their identities are often met with obvious racial identifications, raising questions of whether places are affected by these foreign newcomers. Does place change the cultural identities of newcomers? Or, do the new cultural backgrounds of foreigners change place, changing both its landscape and its original cultural expression? In an upcoming April 2022 platial seminar, we will consider how the urbanisation of people can affect the platial context of their new urban surroundings. Should be exciting!
Platial science is a concept of place and people; a topic that discusses many things including the colourful, cultural and diverse aspects of people to the land and their interactions with it. In this, we explore the intellectual minds within the Places of Climate Change forum and find ways to help protect places we love and live in.
