Future Worldviews of Children and Young People on Climate Change Through Speculative Drama
Thu, April 8, 4:00 to 5:00pm EDT (4:00 to 5:00pm EDT), SIG Sessions, SIG-Arts-Based Educational Research Roundtable SessionsAbstract
The Anthropocene, has seen the fast depletion of natural resources that cause harm to the entire ecosystem. Children enter a world established by others, which they have no real choice but to accept. This cross-disciplinary PhD study aims to understand how Speculative Drama, a relatively new field of study, can be applied to understand children and young people’s future worldviews on climate change. The research focus is on the agency of children and explores the importance of children and young people engaging as critical participants in their own futures. This study is currently being conducted and would analyse how speculative drama may serve as an arts-based educational research methodology.
