I'm presenting at my first @pollenetwork.bsky.social conference! Zoos are influential but overlooked in-situ conservation actors. By working ex- and in-situ, is there a risk they shape landscapes to look like exhibits, rather than the other way around? Session 10, July 2, 16:30–18:30 #POLLEN2026

Next week I'll be presenting at POLLEN 2026 in Barcelona 🌍 — my talk, "Uneven climate adaptation and the politics of gender mainstreaming in Sri Lanka's dry zone," is part of the political ecology of climate finance session. Looking forward to it! @pollenetwork.bsky.social

New webinar : 📅 22 June 2026 🕙 15:30–17:00 CET Just Transition and Care Work: An International Inquiry explores how care work—both paid and unpaid—is central to just transition strategies, linking climate action with social reproduction, labour rights, and everyday life. 🌍💜

📖 New article: conflicts and migration in the Sahel are often explained through climate, ethnicity, or poverty—but this study shows land dispossession as a central, overlooked driver. A political ecology lens challenges reductionist explanations of crisis. 🌍
