David Conradson, is a Professor at the University of Canterbury, School of Earth and Environment at Christchurch, New Zealand. His research is concerned with the processes and events that generate and sustain wellbeing in places, as well as those which act to undermine and erode it. He examines processes and events that contribute to lived experiences of distress and difficulty in a number of towns, cities and regions in New Zealand and the UK, while also working to identify the collaborations, policies and practices able to facilitate wellbeing within them. He currently is the Managing Editor of the New Zealand Geographer, the flagship journal of the New Zealand Geographical Society, an Associate Editor for Health & Place, and a member of the editorial board for Social & Cultural Geography; Emotion, Space & Society; and the Australasian Journal of Disaster & Trauma Studies.
