Dr. Ruth Evans is an Associate Professor in Human Geography at the University of Reading, UK. Her research focuses on care ethics, intergenerationality and family geographies in relation to chronic illness, bereavement, inheritance and migration. Her recent research explored caring relations following the death of a relative in diverse families in urban Senegal (funded by The Leverhulme Trust) and she is currently conducting research with refugee families affected by chronic illness and bereavement in the UK. Her monograph focuses on children caring for parents living with HIV in global perspective (with Saul Becker, The Policy Press).
Ruth is particularly interested in participatory action research, emotions in research, care ethics and achieving social impacts. She is leader of the Participation Lab at the University of Reading, an innovative initiative which aims to co-produce knowledge with policymakers, practitioners and community members. Recent publications have reflected on care ethics and developing an 'impact' case study for her institution (Area) and on women's and young people's land rights and inheritance in Senegal (Gender, Place and Culture) and Ghana (Geoforum). Ruth teaches social, cultural and development geography and is a co-author of the text book, Key Concepts in Development Geography (with Robert Potter, Dennis Conway and Sally Lloyd-Evans, SAGE). She is an editorial board member of the journals, Gender, Place & Culture and Social & Cultural Geography and was Awards Officer of the Geographies of Children, Youth and Families Research Group of the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG).
Dr Louise Holt is Reader in Human Geography at Loughborough University, UK. Louise leads the Geographies of Children, Youth and Families Research Cluster at Loughborough, and from January 2017 will be co-editor of the journal Children’s Geographies. Louise is a scholar of geographies of children, young people and families, and has an enduring interest in how inequalities are reproduced and/or transformed at a variety of intersecting spatial scales, including through the everyday social practices of young people, and the adults around them. Louise is intrigued by the ways in which everyday practices in specific spaces/places are connected to, reproduce, and can potentially transform, broader-scale inequalities that coalesce around intersecting bodily morphologies (particularly childhood and disability, but also class, ethnicity and gender). Recent research explores the material everyday geographies of infant feeding practices, taking seriously the inter-subjective agency/subjectivity of infants; and the (re)production of disability and ability through everyday practices in schools, homes and leisure spaces, and the interconnection with broader processes of social exclusion/inclusion. Among other works, Louise is editor of Geographies of Children Youth and Families: An International Perspective. Louise established the International Conferences of Geographies of Children, Youth and Families, which have continued to grow and thrive as a collaborative effort.
