MAIRE O'NEILL
Through exploratory foreign studies programs with her students in rural Asia she practices a cultural immersion learning experience. With her students she has done community service projects such as an adaptive re-use design for the Manjushree Centre for Tibetan Culture in Darjeeling, India; a paleontology Museum in Ulaan Baatar, Mongolia (Institute for the Study of Mongolian Dinosaurs); and community design projects in Kathmandu, Nepal. In 2007 she co-founded Gallatin Equestrian Partnership (GallEP) because the city and county trails and transportation plan proposals had no provisions to include the horse uses. GallEP's vision: "Helping to safeguard our western heritage by restoring our vanishing equestrian landscape." Read Professor O'Neill's thoughts on this year’s BERKELEY PRIZE topic here JOHN STUBBS
