This captivating book delves into the realm of critical walking and mapping practices, employing a research methodology known as a/r/tography. Initially establishing seven global sites for exploring movement-based research practices within culturally conceived a/r/tographic perspectives, the book expands upon and fosters an international community of practice. The editors and contributors employ public pedagogy through a/r/tographic and critical walking inquiry, thereby exploring how these forms can be engaged, understood, and expanded globally.

The chapters in this collection delve into the practical application, theoretical exploration, experiential engagement, extension, and conceptualization of a/r/tography and walking inquiry. They respond to the pressing contemporary need for innovative models of teaching, learning, and scholarship in addressing global and local educational and social challenges.

This collection presents tangible, aesthetic, and rigorous examples for researchers, educators, community practitioners, and research students to engage with a/r/tography and critical walking inquiry. By doing so, they can contribute to the ongoing development of this field and its potential to shape our understanding of the world.
