Trosolwyg
Rwy'n ymchwilydd gwyddorau cymdeithasol sy'n canolbwyntio ar gymdeithas a newid yn yr hinsawdd, yn bennaf:
- Ymgysylltu â'r cyhoedd a chyfathrebu
- Sectorau'r celfyddydau a diwylliant a chwaraeon
- Trawsnewidiadau cymdeithasol ar draws gwahanol sectorau a graddfeydd
Darllenwch fwy am y prif feysydd ffocws hyn ar y tab ymchwil. Rwy'n awyddus i weithio rhyngddisgyblaethol, yn canolbwyntio ar effaith (e.e. gweithio gyda phartneriaid anacademaidd) ac rwyf hefyd wedi gweithio ar bynciau cymdeithasol ehangach.
Ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd, rwy'n rhan o'r Ganolfan Newid yn yr Hinsawdd a Thrawsnewidiadau Cymdeithasol (CAST). Rwyf hefyd yn rhan o Ganolfan Ymchwil Newid Hinsawdd Tyndall ac wedi gweithio i Brifysgol Heriot-Watt a Phrifysgol Rhydychen. Rwyf wedi gweithio ar draws rolau ymchwil llawrydd, sefydliadol ac academaidd ac mae gen i gefndir yn y diwydiant creadigol a chyfathrebu.

Ymchwil
1. Ymgysylltu â'r cyhoedd a chyfathrebu
Mae llawer o fy ngwaith yn canolbwyntio ar gyfathrebu newid hinsawdd ac ymgysylltu â'r cyhoedd - sut i gysylltu'n well ag ystod eang o bobl, yn enwedig y rhai nad ydynt fel arfer yn rhan o'r sgwrs hinsawdd.
Mae hyn yn cynnwys sut i gynnwys pobl hŷn yn y sgwrs hinsawdd a phrosiect cyd-ddylunio gyda phobl hŷn am sut i greu dinasoedd a chymunedau cynhwysol, sy'n gyfeillgar i oedran ac sy'n gallu gwrthsefyll yr hinsawdd.
Ar ben arall yr ystod oedran, mae hyn wedi cynnwys ymchwil am bobl ifanc a chyfiawnder hinsawdd. Rwyf hefyd wedi archwilio beth mae gwahanol segmentau o'r cyhoedd yn y DU yn ei feddwl am COP26, y gynhadledd newid hinsawdd a gynhaliwyd yn Glasgow.
2. Y celfyddydau a diwylliant a'r sectorau chwaraeon
Yn wreiddiol o gefndir creadigol, mae llawer o'm prosiectau wedi archwilio newid yn yr hinsawdd trwy lens greadigol neu'n ymwneud â'r sectorau celfyddydau a diwylliant a chwaraeon.
Mae hyn yn cynnwys gweithio gyda'r diwydiant cerddoriaeth fyw i ddarparu argymhellion ac astudiaethau achos ymarferol ar sut i ymgysylltu â'u cynulleidfaoedd ar ddewisiadau teithio cynaliadwy mewn digwyddiadau. Rwyf hefyd wedi archwilio sut y gall artistiaid cerddoriaeth ymgysylltu â'u cynulleidfaoedd am newid yn yr hinsawdd.
Yn ogystal, rwyf wedi ymchwilio i sut y gall digwyddiadau celfyddydol a diwylliant ymgysylltu â phobl â newid yn yr hinsawdd a i ba raddau y mae hyn yn effeithio ar gynulleidfaoedd. Y tu allan i ddigwyddiadau, rwyf hefyd wedi archwilio amrywiaeth mewn ffotograffau o weithgareddau awyr agored.
Mae fy ngwaith hefyd yn canolbwyntio ar chwaraeon. Mae hyn wedi cynnwys gwaith ar weithredu yn yr hinsawdd mewn sefydliadau chwaraeon a rygbi union. Mewn rôl wirfoddol ar gyfer Cymdeithas Rhedwyr Syrmp Cymru (WFRA), rwyf wedi cyhoeddi canllawiau hinsawdd ac amgylcheddol ac wedi sefydlu eu Gwobrau'r Amgylchedd. Rwyf hefyd wedi bod yn westai ar bodlediad Athlete Climate Academy.
3. Trawsnewidiadau cymdeithasol ar draws gwahanol sectorau a graddfeydd
Mae fy ngwaith yn edrych ar weithredu hinsawdd mewn gwahanol sectorau ac ar raddfeydd amrywiol i drawsnewid cymdeithas.
Ar gyfer fy PhD, gweithiais ar brosiect mawr am ymatebion prifysgolion i'r argyfwng hinsawdd, gan ganolbwyntio ar eu datganiadau argyfwng hinsawdd a'u diwylliant ac arferion o fewn y sefydliadau, yn enwedig ynghylch ymgysylltiad ymchwilwyr mewn gweithredu hinsawdd.
Rwyf hefyd wedi gweithio ar brosiectau am arbrawf byw heb geir i leihau'r defnydd o geir, polisi datgarboneiddio yng Nghymru, a'r dylanwad y gall trinwyr gwallt ei gael ar weithredu hinsawdd a chynaliadwyedd gyda chleientiaid.
