#minätutkin kaivos- ja luonnonsuojelusektorien välistä kilpailua maasta ja luonnonvaroista ja tämän aiheuttamia sosio-ekologisia muutoksia Madagaskarilla. Miten tämä globaali kilpajuoksu vaikuttaa paikallisyhteisöihin ja eri sukupuoliin? Faculty of Social Sciences, HelsinkiUni

Out today: a great collaboration with @FergusSimpson88 investigating #Mining and #conservation frontiers in #DRC and #Madagascar

Mining and conservation can both be tools of capital accumulation but when they overlap, things get interesting. Here's my framework for analysing these frontier intersections: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Faculty of Social Sciences, HelsinkiUni GCC Group EXALT - Global Extractivisms and Alternatives

Together with Marketta Vuola we wrote an opinion piece to Helsingin Sanomat about the responsibility of the Global North at #COP15 CBD COP15 in carrying their responsibility to address the biodiversity crisis. In Finnish: hs.fi/mielipide/art-…

Governments appear to have signed a once-in-a-decade deal to halt the destruction of Earth’s ecosystems at #COP15 BUT It faces serious legitimacy concerns as China forces the deal through, ignoring objections from the African states theguardian.com/environment/20…
