- Research interests
-
I am interested in environmental justice struggles in urban settings, focusing on everyday life, place attachment, social relationships, and (re)makings of community. My thesis project, provisionally titled "Traces of neighbourhood environmentalism in Mexico City: neighbouring practices and environmental justice in urban everyday life", explores the neighbour relationship as a site of everyday environmentalism.
