Utbildning & lärande

Walking methods are gaining recognition in various educational contexts today. They sustain creativity and embodied cognition towards socio-ecological sustainability. Linked to environmental thinking and arts-based research methods, they also play a role in expanded listening and pedagogics based on all senses. How can we integrate walking methods into traditional and non-traditional educational settings, and apply theoretical insights practically to impact educators and learners?

Jonsered Manor & Department of literature, history of ideas and religion at the University of Gothenburg in collaboration with One by Walking and Jonsered Gardens

Walking as a method within embodied research, integrating the senses, draws upon environmental humanities and arts-based research methods. How can walking be used as a biographical interview method for critical public pedagogy, challenging power dynamics and privileges? How are walking as a embodied pedagogy contributing to debates about the relations between listening and other senses in education? And how can walking be a tool in affective pedagogies, spatial exploration of practices, and the institutional and material constitution of legitimacy?

About One by Walking
One by Walking is a network for collaboration, discussion, and experimentation within the area of research methodologies concerned with walking and experimental scientific and art-based work related to walking methodologies. The members of this network come from across various fields of the performing arts, pedagogy, social science, and humanities, each with a documented interest in the connections between bodies, landscapes, perception, sustainability, movement, walking and methodological innovation. The network was founded in 2020  by support from Swedish Riksbanken’s Jubileumsfond and  NOS-HS (Nord Forsk). One by walking brings various disciplines together, we arrange workshops and do joint publications. The guiding principle behind the network is that interventions in artistic performance can collaborate with scientific researchers working on methodologies of movement. Our researchers are searching for new ways of working with sustainability, landscape management, art, and pedagogy.
