=== Rochelle Nieuwenhuis ===
 +
Community Co-Researcher, InWithForward
 +
 
 +
[[File:Nieuwenhuis, Rochelle - Headshot.jpg|frameless|300x300px]]
 +
|Rochelle Nieuwenhuis is a Community Co-Researcher with InWithForward, and lives in Amiskwaciwâskahikan (Edmonton). She holds a BSc Honors in Mathematics and is also curious about questions of the heart: questions about change and human nature, and what it means to create a thriving community. She spent 8 years working at a non-profit with people experiencing poverty and homelessness, and wrestled with questions around charity vs solidarity, doing with not for, agency and dignity, restorative practice, kinship, conflict resolution, and team culture. She holds a certificate in Dialogue for Peaceful Change, and has also worked as a Health and Safety Analyst and led the implementation of an organizational Health and Safety Program.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
Part of her work with InWithForward has included critical design ethnography related to housing as well as supporting two local prototypes - one on listening infrastructure that better enables cities and communities to measure well-being, and one on tending to the deep existential needs found at the root of many social issues and community care in response to grief and loss. She is deeply grateful for the many humans whom she has met and formed relationships with through this work.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
Fun facts: Rochelle spent a month in clown school, is an amateur bike and car mechanic, and once grew a jungle of 40 tomato plants in her apartment living room.
