摘要：

The fair and effective governance of freshwater is an increasingly prominent issue in New Zealand. Emerging from a complex of cultural, economic and biophysical narratives, freshwater geographies are multiple, varied and increasingly acknowledged as worthy of interdisciplinary scrutiny. In this commentary, we reflect on a series of generative spaces that we as group of postgraduate geographers (plus supporting staff) created to engage with the multiplicity of freshwater meanings both within and beyond the academy. Through this evolving epistemic-political project, we significantly reframed our own understandings about what freshwater is and how it ought to be governed. By pursuing a deeper understanding of how the world gets made, we expand our ability to know and make it differently.
