项目摘要

As a cultural geographer, I try to understand how people, places, power relations and cultures shape our social life. My research focuses on how people make sense of their lives and their urban environment through gardening in cities. I study the complex field of everyday interactions between people, plants and animals, and thereby further our understanding of how ideas of work and play are formed and redefined in urban gardens. I talk with urban gardeners, join in with their activities and observe what they do over a longer period of time. This in-depth engagement helps to make visible the rich embodied experience of cultivating an urban garden and sheds light on both the hard work of looking after a garden and the sensory and social play of this practice. This research makes a difference by providing a nuanced understanding of the social, environmental and economic implications of urban gardening. It furthermore puts to the fore that allotment, community and guerrilla gardens are important parts of people's everyday lives in cities and makes a case for protecting and enhancing these meaningful places.During the fellowship, the internationally recognised architecture and art studio muf architecture/art and I plan to work together to influence urban policy making in London on themes of sustainability, community and the public realm. This collaboration with muf architecture/art, which as one of the Mayor's Design Advocates has a role in delivering projects championed by the Greater London Authority (GLA), involves disseminating the research results of my PhD thesis and translating these findings into forms that can inform policy making processes. All three case studies for my PhD research were situated in London. The extensive and in-depth study of an allotment site, a community garden and guerrilla garden sites provides a rich evidence base for the formulation of urban policy on green spaces and their socialities. The fellowship will also facilitate an exchange of knowledge between the London context of urban gardening and Berlin, through an overseas research visit to the Technische Universität Berlin. The fellowship will contribute to current debates on urban sustainable futures and the new London Plan; it will argue that allotment, community and guerrilla gardens do not just have an environmental impact, they are not just green spaces that contribute to the city's biodiversity and cleaner air, but that they are specific sites of sociality as well.

作为一名文化地理学家，我试图理解人、地点、权力关系和文化如何塑造我们的社会生活。我的研究重点是人们如何通过城市园艺来理解他们的生活和城市环境。我研究人、植物和动物之间日常互动的复杂领域，从而进一步理解如何在城市花园中形成和重新定义工作和娱乐的概念。我与城市园丁交谈，加入他们的活动，并在较长一段时间内观察他们在做什么。这种深入的参与有助于使培育城市花园的丰富经验具体化，并阐明了照顾花园的辛勤工作以及这种实践的感官和社交游戏。这项研究通过提供对城市园艺的社会、环境和经济影响的细致理解而有所不同。此外，它还突出了分配，社区和游击式花园是城市中人们日常生活的重要组成部分，并提出了保护和增强这些有意义的地方的案例。在奖学金期间，国际公认的建筑和艺术工作室muf architecture/art和我计划共同努力，影响伦敦可持续发展，社区和公共领域主题的城市政策制定。这次与muf建筑/艺术的合作，作为市长设计倡导者之一，在大伦敦当局（GLA）倡导的项目中发挥着重要作用，包括传播我博士论文的研究成果，并将这些发现转化为可以为政策制定过程提供信息的形式。我博士研究的三个案例都在伦敦。对分配场地、社区花园和游击式花园场地的广泛而深入的研究，为制定城市绿地及其社会性政策提供了丰富的证据基础。该奖学金还将通过对柏林技术学院Universität的海外研究访问，促进伦敦城市园艺背景与柏林之间的知识交流。该奖学金将有助于当前关于城市可持续未来和新伦敦计划的辩论；它将论证分配、社区和游击式花园不仅对环境有影响，它们不仅是有助于城市生物多样性和清洁空气的绿色空间，而且它们也是特定的社交场所。
