Julian Agyeman is trained initially in Geography and Botany (B.Sc.), Conservation Policy (MA), and finally Urban Studies (Ph.D.). He is better known today as a critical urban planning and environmental social science scholar. His combined science and social science background, together with extensive experience in local government, consulting, working for, and board-level advising of NGOs and community-based organizations, helps frame his perspectives, research and writing. This allows him to thrive at the borders and intersections of a wide range of knowledges,disciplines and methodologies which he uses in creative and original ways.
