Jo Lindsay

Professor Jo Lindsay at Monash University's Faculty of Arts specializes in the sociology of families, consumption, and the environment, with significant contributions to understanding domestic sustainability, food practices, and alcohol consumption among youth. As Associate Dean Enterprise, she bridges academic research with practical applications.

• Key projects include CRC for Water Sensitive Cities research on domestic water use

Her recent Environmental Sociology publications explore household sustainability and gendered responsibility in reducing waste. Awards and projects focus on social justice, urban transitions, and public health messaging.
