Career Summary
Biography
Associate Professor Kathy Mee is a cultural geographer who works in the Discipline of Geography and Environmental Studies and the Centre for Urban and Regional Studies at the University of Newcastle. She is an award winning teacher having won the University of Newcastle Excellence in Teaching Award in 1998, the Faculty of Science and IT Excellence in Teaching Award in 2008 and 2017 and the Vice Chancellor's Award for Teaching Excellence and Contribution to Student Learning (Science) in 2017. In her work as Program Convenor of the Bachelor of Development Studies she has been involved with a project to Indigenise the curriculum which has been recognised as best practice in the university and the sector.
Kathy’s research explores 3 major themes (i) the changing nature of social vulnerability in urban and regional areas, (ii) housing for socially vulnerable groups, and (iii) the diverse workings and practices of urban regeneration. Her expertise is in the areas of housing studies, urban and regional transition, everyday practices, belonging, and stigmatisation. She has published over 40 papers, chapters and books and has achieved research income of more than 1.3 million dollars including ARC Discovery Project and ARC Linkage Project grants. Her scopus h-index is 7. In addition she has written over 50 reports for industry collaborators and produced Youtube clips and best practice guides to disseminate her research materials to a wider audience. She has supervised 5 PhD students to completion and is currently supervising 6 PhD students.
Kathy has been awarded two 3 ARC-Linkage Grants which have consolidated strong regional engagement links with the key state agencies in the Hunter and Central Coast regions. One ARC-Linkage Grant investigated strategies for more effective management of public housing in the Hunter Region. Another ARC Linkage Grant examined interagency working in the Hunter region. She has also been awarded as ARC Discovery Project grant to explore the assemblages of urban regeneration in Newcastle.
Research Expertise
My primary research expertise is in the area of cultural geography. I am interested in how places are understood, represented, valued and experienced by people at a range of scales. This research interest has developed in three main ways. First, I have undertaken projects that investigate the meanings of places. These projects have looked at the discursive construction of places in a range of cultural texts including the news media, films, government reports and documents and private sector advertising. Second, I have investigated how places are experienced by residents. Recent research has focused on the experience of inner Newcastle neighbourhoods for public housing tenants and private residents. Third, I am interested in how places are managed. My interest in place management involves a consideration how places are managed by public sector institutions, how technologies can be used to enhance the management of places, how residents experience place management through an understanding of care and the diverse practices of urban regeneration. My current research uses an assemblage framework to explore urban regeneration. I am also involved in work looking at social housing, particularly the impacts of the shift from public housing to community housing and the impacts of examining this process through the lens of care.
Teaching Expertise
Kathy won the University of Newcastle Excellence in Teaching Award in 1998, the Faculty of Science Excellence in Teaching Award in 2008 and 2017 and the Vice Chancellor's Award for Teaching Excellence and Contribution to Student Learning (Science) in 2017. These awards reflect her commitment to teaching. She teaches undergraduate courses in human geography from first to fourth year level. My particular areas of teaching expertise are in: Human Geography, Cultural Geography, Social Geography, and Urban Geography. I believe that learning should enable students to develop key competencies relevant to their discipline, that incorporating aspects of student centred learning can enhance motivation to learn, and that teaching is an important part of learning. In each of my courses students engage with material theoretically, methodologically, develop their communication skills and choose case studies that appeal to their own geographical interests. Kathy developed the highly successful work integrated learning course for Development Studies and human geography which allows students to gain experience working with external organisations and to reflect on the implications of this process for their career development. Kathy has also be instrumental in the Indigenisation of the curriculum in the Bachelor of Development Studies.
Administrative Expertise
I have undertaken a number of administrative roles including Head of Discipline of Geography and Environmental Studies, Program Convenor of the Bachelor of Development Studies, member of the Faculty of Science Teaching and Learning Committee and Deputy Director of the Centre for Urban and Regional Studies.

Culture is used to specify a boundary, for example, in terms such as culture¿nature and culture¿economy. Geographers examine the intertwining of these concepts and consider the work done by their separation. The second way geographers use culture is through the phrase ¿culture(s) of ¿¿ ¿Culture(s) of¿ implies culture(s) as actively practiced and reproduced. Finally, geographers use culture preceded by an adjective. Consideration of culture is a vital part of critical human geography analyses of power.

Shadow care infrastructures is a new frame for conceptualising the complex and interconnected practices through which marginalised people seek survival in this context. It remaps welfare landscapes across a continuum that includes formal and informal, established and improvised practice, the not-for-profit sector, informal community networks and exchange and the black market. Conceptually, it centres the care practices that sustain life and the infrastructures that sustain them. Activating a ¿shadow geographies¿ tradition it foregrounds care infrastructures that are necessary, but rarely visible within, welfare discourse.

Such arguments... [more] Co-presence, proximity, and moving with other people, have long been recognised as important factors in our decision-making and performances of everyday wayfinding. Such arguments have roots in the work of sociologist Erving Goffman, whose concept of the ¿mobile with¿ has been widely used to articulate the fluid conglomerations of bodies who come to move together. This paper pushes Goffman¿s idea of the ¿mobile with¿ into the digital age, opening our field of view to an expanded understanding of ¿co-mobility¿. Drawing on the autoethnographic accounts of one of our authors, we illustrate that with the advent of new technologies, bodies are constantly and simultaneously connected to near and distant others, and known and unknown travel companions. These complex techno-communities take form in two key ways: via the sensory and haptic forms of communication required in using technological devices, and the virtual presence afforded by the ability to enact these communications across time and space. Using affect as a lens of analysis, this paper illustrates that sharing co-mobile experiences with near and distant others evokes a particular style of presencing. Importantly, the various affects of presence are called into focus in intense moments, with implications for how people perform their mobilities in the moment, and the lingering emotions they carry in contemplating future mobilities.

[more] Drawing on a growing literature on vertical and volumetric urbanism and a recent ¿subterranean turn¿ in geography, this paper explores the materiality and material agency of the underground and its entwinement with aboveground planning and development. The paper focuses on urban regeneration and planning in Newcastle, Australia: a city where underground coal mining has been deeply entwined in the establishment, economic prosperity, and geographical spread of the city, leaving the city undermined by multiple mine shafts (voids). Our analysis reveals the interconnectedness of vertical and horizontal capacities of the city and how this has shaped recent urban regeneration initiatives. Positioning the underground as a vital and agentic element of the wider urban assemblage and constitutive of the aboveground, we explore how its material presence (or, in this case, absence) is made visible through mapping techniques, and how its agency shapes the form, function and politics of urban development. Our analysis empirically traces the material agency of the underground at two scales. First, we examine how underground voids affect construction and financial viability at the building level. Second, we unpack how the presence of underground voids across the inner-city shapes precinct and city-scale regeneration initiatives, influencing the form and function of the city. The paper builds our understandings of volumetric urbanism and the subterranean, teasing out empirically the intertwinement of the aboveground and underground, and surfacing the material agency of the underground and its influence on the pathways and politics of aboveground urban development.

One expression o... [more] The demands passengers place on contemporary public transport systems are increasingly focused on providing a safe, comfortable and reliable transport experience. One expression of these demands is the recent introduction of designated quiet carriages to trains. The experience of travelling in these spaces has been given little academic scrutiny. Using a case study of the commuting experience between Newcastle and Sydney, New South Wales (NSW), Australia, this paper investigates the practices, relations and affective atmospheres of quiet carriages. The paper argues that passengers on trains come together to craft quiet through interactions between human and material actors. This crafting of quiet results in noticeably different quiet atmospheres at different times of day and in different parts of the journey. Drawing on participant observation including an auto-ethnographic account of travelling in a quiet carriage, the paper distinguishes between four types of quiet crafted by the passenger collective¿sleepy and comfortable quiet, busy quiet, tense quiet and spooky quiet. These four types of quiet play upon the body with different intensities and some have stronger affects that linger after the completion of the journey.

While the insights arising from this work have been many and valuable, significant gaps remain particularly in terms of the foci of analysis and the conception of politics. In this paper, we aim to address these gaps and to reposition the conceptualization of regeneration as a performed and emergent consequence of ¿relatedness¿ and as subject to a range of relational effects and determinations. To do so we work through four capacities of assemblage thinking that are particularly productive for this task: (i) revealing the relational, multiple and processual nature of urban trajectories; (ii) revealing the multi-scalar labouring involved in configuring the (socio-material) assemblages that constitute regeneration; (iii) identifying openings for multiple possible trajectories of regeneration; (iv) providing critical insights into how regeneration trajectories are constrained. We conclude with reflections on what assemblage thinking offers in terms of critically and generatively rethinking urban regeneration.

Yet data sharing is not easily enacted either technically or as a governance practice, especially considering the multiple forms of risk involved. This article presents insights from a successful data sharing project in a major region in east coast Australia involving a federally funded research partnership between two universities and a number of human services agencies. The Spatial Data Analysis Project sought to establish a community of practice for devising data sharing protocols and embedding data sharing into agency practices. Close dialogue between the project partners and mobilizing the authority of extant regulatory and legal frameworks proved effective in confronting risks and barriers. The article reveals effective practices for data sharing and derives lessons for other policy and governance contexts.

[more] The shift towards social, government and corporate ethics which value environmental sustainability has also embraced householders in a plethora of educational guides, policies, regulations and consumer information about green home improvements, purchasing choices and household practices. In this paper, we make the claim that the rental housing sector, and in particular the private rental sector, has yet to participate, structurally, culturally and materially, in this shift to an ethics of sustainability. We argue, however, that even on such otherwise arid ground, an alternative ethic is developing, a sustainability ethic practiced by green tenants whose activities inside and outside their homes go beyond the considerable material constraints of their dwellings and incomes, and beyond the purely transactional utility of the rental contract. These activities, relational, interconnected and resilient, offer both glimpses of a greening rental housing sector, and a clearer picture of the areas where work remains to be done. Based on a research study, we conducted of the rental sector in regional Australia, and in particular of the everyday sustainability practices of tenants, we suggest that these activities are a practice-based form of care for the world, in many ways similar to Maria Puig de la Bellacasa's practice-based, human-decentred ethics which she suggests is exemplified in the permaculture movement. The stories of the tenants we interviewed for our study also point the way to other changes which are needed to enable a practice-based sustainability ethic to flourish across the rental housing sector as a whole.

[more] Over the past several decades, risk has become a distinct field of social inquiry as scholars in a variety of disciplines have developed theories about the 'nature' of risk and the role it plays in contemporary society. Collectively, these theories enrich our understanding of the politics of risk, the dynamics of risk perception, and the way risk shapes and is shaped by space, culture, social change, and modes of governing in the neoliberal era. In this paper, however, we argue these theories are helpful but not entirely suited to understanding risk when it becomes the subject of something Whatmore (2009, p. 587, 2013) calls "environmental knowledge controversies". These controversies are generative events where more-than-human agencies and the political and knowledge making practices of heterogeneous actors reshape our sense of the real. To address this issue, we draw on the concepts of enactment, multiplicity, and ontological politics to explore how different kinds of risk and tree were made more or less real during a contentious debate over the risk posed by a group of urban trees in Newcastle, Australia. This case study suggests we can think of risk and hazardous entities like trees as effects that also affect because they elicit interventions that transform bodies and spaces in more or less enduring ways. Attending to the enactment, multiplicity, and ontological politics of risk, we argue, provides an alternative way to navigate moments of political contestation over the assessment and management of risk that has implications for how these processes are conceived and conducted in the future. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
