Hello 2022!
I hope that you all had an excellent start to your new year. As you have probably noticed things have slowed down a tad at the Animal Turn. I have run into some immigration issues in my personal life and some technical issues with the last two episodes. I am happy to report that I think I have ironed out some of these issues and there will be new episodes coming your way soon. YAY!!!
And with it being a start to a new year it is nice to think a bit about what events and opportunities are available in January. Here are some of the one's I have managed to find. If you know others, please pop them in the comments below!

Open Call: Introduction to the urban ecologies open collection: A call for contributions on methods, ethics, and design in geographical research with urban animals
This Open Collection proposes innovative research directions for both urban and beyond/more-than-/non-human geographies with animals. We are seeking papers for this Open Collection across three themes: (1) methods; (2) ethics and politics; and (3) planning and design. Specifically, we are interested in papers that pose questions of and reflect upon emergent tensions in researching with urban animals in each of these themes. This Open Collection aims to explore urban space beyond the human lens and to offer new modalities and frameworks for geographical research with urban animals. We are interested in papers that explore urban geographies with animals from a range of different theoretical, methodological, and empirical locations and perspectives. In this introduction to the Open Collection, we briefly summarise existing research in this field, before outlining the three thematic areas of the Collection.
