Research Interests

  • Are the sciences we create useful for a just future?
  • How to take care of power relations and questions of justice in models?
  • How to represent logics of actors that are not dominant but could be scaled up?
  • How to explore different futures in an emancipatory way?

 

PhD Research

With a background in physics and climate science, complemented by expertise in environmental humanities such as political ecology, my research delves into how power dynamics influence human-environment interactions and the ways in which these interactions are studied. More concretely, I use a Critical Physical Geography approach to compare conventional and grassroots NETs. Additionally, I am interested in social movements, commoning, and socio-ecological transformation.
