- Profile

Dorothea Kleine is Professor in the Geography Department and Director of the Institute for Global Sustainable Development (IGSD). She also leads the Research Theme on Data and Digital Innovation at IGSD.
Professor Kleine’s research investigates sustainable human development, global justice, and the potential role of digital technologies in making progress towards these aims.
She has published widely on the potential and the ethical challenges of digitalisation in sustainable development in both the global South and North, focusing in particular on the perspective, agency and creativity of the more marginalised. Prof Kleine is well-known for her theoretical work, proposing to apply the capabilities approach to digital development (as laid out in ‘Technologies of Choice?’ (MIT Press)). She argues for a sustainable approach which centers people, justice, and the environment.
Prof Kleine combines conceptual and policy-level work with ongoing empirical research, including participatory action research and co-design. She has undertaken research in Europe, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East.
Her research has been supported by UKRI, ESRC, EPSRC, GCRF, Newton Fund, DFID, the German Academic Exchange Service DAAD, Robert Bosch Foundation, Zeiss-Stiftung, Studienstiftung (ddV), the Canadian International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and the EU.

- Research interests
-
My key research interests are:
- Sustainable and just development futures in the global South (and North)
- Information and communication technologies for development (ICT4D)
- Digital geographies and digital participatory methods
- Ethics of ICT-related development interventions, inclusive innovation and data ethics
- The capabilities approach and sustainable development
- Sustainable/ethical consumption research, food geographies, trade justice and Fair Trade
Themes such as participation, gender, justice and choice run strongly through my work.
I have conducted research in Latin America (Brazil; Chile), Europe (UK, Germany), South Asia (India), Africa (Kenya; South Africa, and more) and the Middle East (Jordan).
I am strongly committed to research which is both academically excellent and can have a positive impact in the context of the global challenges we face today.
Thus my work includes participatory action research in partnership with local communities and marginalised groups, theoretical reflections on the need to redefine “development”, policy advice at UN level, strategic advice to NGOs, and speaking at global policy conferences.
