Abstract

In this second conversation with practitioners, we speak to Phoebe and Dwayne, who are explorers, writers, presenters and more, both with a huge passion for the outdoors and promoting diversity amongst those who are able to access it. Together they created the #WeTwo foundation, to give young people from underprivileged backgrounds the opportunity to travel to the Antarctic. The conversation explores their own experiences as young people and their feelings of exclusion and inclusion (due to race, gender and class) across a range of landscapes, whilst going on to examine their contemporary experience of the outdoor industry and the ongoing prejudices and exclusions they have encountered there. They talk about the challenges of introducing young people to new landscapes, whilst also unpacking the concept of unfamiliar landscapes as productive of tackling ongoing exclusions and prejudices.
