Meet the renowned anthropologist Marisol de la Cadena in a key lecture. In her research she explores issues of social and environmental justice and how these are pertinent to global climate action, as the effects and responses to these are unevenly distributed across the planet. How do we address this unevenness while acknowledging multiple lived realities without dissolving tensions or reinforcing separation and conflict?
For decades, renowned anthropologist Marisol de la Cadena has explored how politics meet ethnography in establishing positions, perspectives on and responses to critical planetary challenges. Through extensive field studies and research inquiries across the global North and South, she has explored how conflicts and misconceptions – but also potential contact zones – emerge within and in-between such different worlds and are formative of how we understand and make use of our relationship with nature and our planet.
