With no end in sight to our current coalescence of crises, this book serves as an invitation to those working alongside young people to consider what we must carry with us if we are to reimagine and remake our world.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlison Baker \u003c\/strong\u003eis Associate Professor of Youth and Community Studies in the College of Arts and Education and a Principal Research Fellow with the Institute for Sustainable Industries and Liveable Cities (ISILC) at Victoria University in Melbourne, Australia.
