Designing for Hope with Dominique Hes and Morag Gamble
About this episode
I am so delighted to welcome Dr Dominique Hes to the Sense-Making in a Changing World Show. In this episode we explore what it means to design for life to thrive and deeply listen to Country in the face of multiple crises.
Dominique is an award winning educator with over 25 years of experience in universities, communities and professional organisations with focus on design, placemaking, regenerative development, biophilia and urban greenery. Dominique has degrees in botany, engineering and architecture and brings an interdisciplinary approach to all her work. She is an Adjunct Fellow at the Cities Research Institute at Griffith University and Honorary Fellow at the Melbourne Sustainable Society Institute at the University of Melbourne.
Her passion is teaching people their potential agency in contributing to a thriving future. She is also author of Designing For Hope: Pathways to Regenerative Sustainability with co-author Chrisna du Plessis, and Chair of the Board of Greenfleet - a leading not-for-profit organisation committed to protecting our climate by restoring our forests. Dominique and I are both members of the Regenerative Songlines Australia and she also recently became a member of the Permaculture Education Institute.
Come and join us in conversation.

This podcast is hosted by Morag Gamble, founder of the Permaculture Education Institute, where she mentors people to design and teach permaculture in their own unique contexts.
Morag has been asking a central question for thirty years: How are we to live? These podcast conversations are part of her ongoing attempt to think that through in public, in community, with people who care.
Morag is also host of the Ethos Fellowship, Ethos Foundation, International Permaculture Festival of Wild Ideas, steward of Fritjof Capra's international Alumni Network, and member of the Ecocivilistation Coalition.
