Affrica Taylor is an adjunct associate professor at the University of Canberra, Australia. Her background in cultural geography and Indigenous Australian education have shaped her abiding interest in the relations between people, place, and other species in settler colonial societies, and in the need to decolonise these relations. She explores these themes in her books, Reconfiguring the Natures of Childhood and Unsettling the Colonial Places and Spaces of Early Childhood Education.

Veronica Pacini-Ketchabaw is a professor of early childhood education at Western University in Canada.
