Associate Researcher at the Leuphana University Lueneburg (Germany) since 2005, and founding coordinator of Cultura21 International, my interest in walking is related to my engagement for transdisciplinary, artscience research towards cultures of sustainability. I was the founding director of ASSiST in 2010, the international summer school of arts and sciences for sustainability in social transformation. In its first edition, hosted in Gabrovo (Bulgaria), ASSiST devoted itself to exploring walking as a transdisciplinary methodology. At the Leuphana university, I also explore walking as an element of higher education for sustainability.
I first encountered the Walking Artists Network ‘in persona’ at the Trage Wege event in September 2012 (some WAN members were with us in 2010 at ASSiST).
