People
Dr Lucy Healey: Borderlands project staff; academic at Melbourne and Monash Universities in gender studies, anthropology and development studies; consultancies in social research, evaluation, organisational development in Australia, PNG & Malaysia.
Dr Tricia Hiley: MBus (OrgChange&Devt), PhD, is a lifelong learner and director of Potential Space, a micro-business which fosters learning practices for living and working in our complex and dynamic world. Tricia teaches in Oases and serves as Chair of the Academic Board.
Martha Hills: I came to Borderlands by way of Permaculture Melbourne, who has sublet office space from Borderlands. Learning about and moving toward sustainability on a personal and a group level are important to me. These days, however, my activities are managing the cataloguing of the library and keeping the membership list and office organised (hopefully).
Jose Ramos: is currently undertaking PhD research into counter-globalisation. He researches and writes in the areas of action research, foresight, ecological sustainability, media and globalisation.
Deb Salvagno: I first visited Borderlands in 2003 whilst studying Community Development and was blown away by the diversity of activities and the sense of welcome extended by everyone. I also felt a deep level of solidarity and commonality with Borderlanders and realised I wasn’t the only one hoping for alternatives to the mainstream economic paradigm. As a place for exploring new ideas, learning from one another and putting into practice what I learned during my studies, Borderlands has reinforced my commitment to working for social change and provides a safe and nurturing space from which to do it! I’ve done various things during my time here like the newsletter, events and helping with the finances. For two years now I’ve been working in the Oases Program which is an expression of Borderlands’ and Augustine’s commitment to finding ways to create a better world. Aren’t I lucky!
