Blak Powerhouse

The YourGround NSW crowd-sourced map launched on 15 November 2023 and is open for submissions until February 2024. This interactive, crowd-sourced map asks women and gender-diverse people to pin a spot and share their experiences about safety across NSW to help create more inclusive public spaces and transport hub precincts.

Sonia Randhawa from Wednesday Breakfast spoke to Dr Nicole Kalms – Director, XYX Lab,  Associate Professor from Monash University discussing this project. 

 

Grace speaks to Professor Geoff Webb, a data scientist in the Department of Data Science & AI, Faculty of Information Technology at Monash University, discussing the government's AI interim response to a consultation process on the safe & responsible use of AI.

 

Building on the concept of the “tragedy of the commons,” guest producers completing sociology at the University of Melbourne dive into the theory behind whether water can be collectively owned. Unpacking the sociology of sustainability, student producers are here to walk you through how climate racism and patriarchy operate to limit marginalised people’s right to water, and therefore right to life.
