In this episode Carol discusses a psychology dedicated to positivity, inclusion, with New Zealand psychologist Niki Harre, author of The Infinite Game: How to Live Well Together.
Rather than seeing life as a closed affair based on competition, Niki Harre sees it as an open game based on rules evolving as we go along,
And as Niki is inspired by psychological research and social activism, she shows how the game of life can be open ended and open to new and diverse players. Nikki’s more recent research addresses issues of sustainability, values and care for the common good. The question that drives her is how to engage people in creating a more sustainable and equitable society. She has been motivated to research and teach on the area of psychology and sustainability.
