ABOUT ME
Dr. Nick Brancazio
I’m a Portland-based researcher and grant writer for non-profits with a focus on education and ethics. I am an expert in DEI research and education initiatives, as well as a seasoned manager in education development and fundraising.
My previous academic work focused on agential and interactive dynamics in abiotic and collective systems (Brancazio 2023, Brancazio and Meyer 2023), and I have also published work examining enactive and embodied cognition through the lens of feminist philosophy of science (e.g. Brancazio 2020, Brancazio 2022).
I strongly believe that youth need and deserve a foundation in critical thinking and ethical reasoning skills to be equipped to manage the catastrophic issues facing them now and in the coming decades due to the uncritical adherence to late-stage capitalism of previous generations. We owe it to today’s students to equip them to lead, and then to follow.
