Dear all, We are very excited to announce next year’s Wageningen political ecology spring school, which will take place from 8-12 April 2024. This year, the theme is ‘political ecologies of conservation’ and we hope many motivated PhD students will apply to join a great group of lecturers we have assembled for the course. Please spread the word! See below and the website for more information.
Best wishes, Bram https://www.wur.nl/en/activity/political-ecologies-of-conservation-extinction-struggles-neoliberal-natures-and-convivial-alternatives-4-ects.htm Political Ecologies of Conservation: Extinction struggles, neoliberal natures and convivial alternatives - 4 ECTS This year’s Wageningen Political Ecology PhD Spring School takes stock of important political ecology of conservation debates from a variety of different angles. Specifically, it focuses on three interconnected elements in these debates: 1) extinction struggles; and 2) neoliberal natures and 3) new visions for how we can do conservation (as well as relate to nonhumans) differently in more hopeful, politically astute and convivial ways. -------------------------------- Prof. Dr. Bram Büscher Professor and chair, sociology of development and change<https://www.wur.nl/en/Research-Results/Chair-groups/Social-Sciences/sdc.htm>, Wageningen University & Research Visiting Professor, Department of Geography, Environmental Management and Energy Studies<https://www.uj.ac.za/faculties/science/geography> - University of Johannesburg De Leeuwenborch, Hollandseweg 1, 6707 KN Wageningen, Netherlands.
