The role of virtual field trips in Geography higher education: A perspective paper
In this perspective paper, we explore the role virtual field trips (VFTs) may play in creating a more resilient, sustainable and equitable field education for Geography students in higher education as we move away from the pandemic but into a financially precarious higher education environment. While in‐person field trips are a fundamental part of Geography (and allied subjects) education, there is growing recognition of the equality, diversity, …
Everyone's talking about climate change actions, but can we learn from Wales' approach
Addressing climate change, the defining crisis of the twenty-first century, necessitates both robust political leadership and effective public engagement, the latter often proving to be a substantial challenge. Through the introduction of the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015, the National Assembly for Wales (now Welsh Government) took a proactive stance on climate change. Over the last ten years, they have made considerable progr…
Looking ahead to the future of GeogEd: Creating spaces of exchange between communities of practice
As part of the special issue marking the transition of the Higher Education Research Group to the Geography and Education Research Group, in this final paper we argue that the reformed group has a key role to play in promoting spaces of exchange between the communities of practice that have a stake in the shared endeavours of geography and education. We draw on structured conversations from the group’s launch event, existing literature, and our p…

British Lesbian Poetics: A Brief Exploration
In a post-feminist, post-lesbian feminist, postmodern or queer world, should lesbian work remain clearly identifiable, even when it refuses to claim lesbian identity as such? Scanning anthologies from the past three decades of lesbian poetry, and focusing particularly on the work of Maureen Duffy, Marge Yeo, Dorothea Smartt, Gillian Spraggs and Carol Ann Duffy, Liz Yorke addresses issues of lesbian visibility, lesbian identification, lesbian desi…
Impertinent Voices: Subversive Strategies in Contemporary Women's Poetry
What is the relationship between desire and the erotic, and the forms and structures of poetry? Impertinent Voices is a candid and revealing study of female poetic forms. Liz Yorke looks closely at the intricate and disruptive poetry of some of the 20th century's greatest poets: Sylvia Plath, Adrienne Rich, H.D. and Audre Lourde. And she brings the theories of Irigaray, Cixous and Kristeva to bear on her own clear analysis of the ways in which fe…
