My project thus recognises and values creative practice as culturally- and contextually-generated, and investigates the unique contribution of an ‘Australasian creativity’ as specific to this geopolitical place. By looking across the education lifespan and creative economic practices and goals, my work aims to build transnational understanding and alliances for regional and global creative economic success.</font><br style="font-size:small;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><br style="font-size:small;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><b style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:small;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial">Bio</b><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:small;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline">:<span> </span></span><br style="font-size:small;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><font face="georgia, serif">Associate Professor Anne M.
