Josh Opoku Brew
PhD Candidate, Department of Music, University of Pittsburgh
Josh Brew is an African and African diasporic music and sound scholar. His theoretical and practical approach to research focuses on how music and sound sustain humans and how humans, in turn, sustain music, the natural environment, and non-humans. Thus, his research is located within the discourses of music sustainability, sound studies, and economic ethnomusicology. His other areas of interest include music industries, Black studies, African indigenous knowledge systems, popular music fandom, and ecomusicology.
Josh is currently a doctoral candidate at the University of Pittsburgh. His project, “Gifts from Nature,” is at the nexus of palmwine music, indigenous knowledge, economies, and ecological sustainability in Ghana. His project is a response to the Anthropocene, the current geological epoch characterised by human dominance over the planet and resulting in climate change and other environmental crises. His project aims to critically localise this global problem by examining the intersection of musical and ecological sustainability.
As an applied ethnomusicologist, he is interested in extending his research to benefit the communities with whom he works. He has hosted workshops, worked with young musicians and bands in Ghana to explore music career strategies like contemporary music business models, and assisted in establishing their digital presence. He is currently collaborating with the Legon Palmwine Band In using music as a tool for ecological sustainability in Ghana. Josh is also a composer and performer of Afrobeats, highlife, jazz, and classical guitar.

Following this, Josh worked within a manufacturer of medical devices, specialising in oxygen therapy and assisted ventilation equipment.
Josh then undertook a PhD supervised by Prof. Martin Clift within the In Vitro Toxicology Group at Swansea University. Here, he investigated the effects of nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter air pollution within advanced in vitro models of the human airway. More recently, Josh has undertaken a postdoctoral research position where he is researching the inhalation hazard of inhaled micronanoplastics.

Joshua Newell
Professor of Environment and Sustainability, University of Michigan
Joshua Newell is a professor in the School for Environment and Sustainability at the University of Michigan. He is a broadly trained human-environment geographer, whose research focuses on questions related to urban sustainability, resource consumption, and environmental and social justice. Newell’s current research can be divided into two primary areas of interest. The first, Urban Infrastructure and Form, focuses on structural features of the urban form (e.g. built environment, transport, energy, and water infrastructure). The second research area, Urban Consumption and Commodities, focuses on the interrelationships between the consumption of consumer products, our responsibilities as global 'green' urban citizens, and the role of governance mechanisms and frameworks (including local institutions) in regulating product consumption. His research approach is often multi-scalar and integrative and, in addition to theory and method found in geography and urban planning, he draws upon principles and tools of industrial ecology, and spatial analysis. He teaches Sustainability and Society, a large undergraduate course, and Urban Sustainability, which is designed for MS and PhD students. He also leads a year-long interdisciplinary PhD student workshop that grapples with theories and concepts of urbanism, sustainability, and resilience.

Juan Pablo Ferrero
Dr Ferrero holds a PhD on political sociology from the University of Bath. His thesis is entitled 'The Politics of democratisation in post-transition contexts: social movement organisations and trade unions in the production of democratic subjectivities in Argentina and Brazil'.
His latest book was published by Palgrave Macmillan (2014): 'Democracy Against Neoliberalism in Argentina and Brazil: A Move to the Left'. The book examines the complex roots of the left turn in Argentina and Brazil. Originating in the 1990s in a process of mobilization from below against neoliberalism, this turn gained visibility in the 2000s and continues through the present day.
Offering an in-depth analysis of key protagonists, including social movement and trade union organizations, Juan Pablo Ferrero deploys an original analytical model for understanding the nature, meaning, and organizational complexity of the emerging democratic force. Democracy against Neoliberalism in Argentina and Brazil asks us to examine closely what we mean by democracy and offers suggestions for how the left should approach democratic manifestations in order to make radical democracy the center of a renewed political strategy.
He is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. He has been awarded a number of grants and prior to his appointment at Bath worked in academic institutions in Buenos Aires and Wellington.
