Global Environmental Justice Inaugural Conference
Emerging Scholars
Supported by The Graciela Chichilnisky Environmental Fund in Honor of Natasha Chichilnisky-Heal
This year, the Global Environmental Justice Conference explores pressing topics including extractive industries and human rights, and migration, displacement and adaptation in response to climate change. This conference honors the intellectual legacy and memory of Natasha Chichilnisky-Heal, a young scholar concerned with natural resource management and global environmental inequities. To produce a rich and stimulating dialogue and foster emerging scholarship, we will be breaking many of the standard norms of academic conferences. In order to more fully explore the relationship of scholarship and the practice of environmental management, we welcome participation from across disciplines, including anthropology, climate science, epidemiology, geography, sociology, history, and others.
