The manifestation and everyday impacts of climate change and global environmental change, raise important questions about knowledge and power, adequate technologies for adaptation and mitigation, the best pathways for sociotechnical transitions, and the moral and ethical implications of these.
Approaches to address differential impacts and vulnerabilities of diverse populations and ecosystems around the globe need to embody a profound sense of justice and inclusion to guarantee survival and quality of life for all living species and communities. This is especially important in decolonial and posthumanist approaches, particularly in countries with deep socioeconomical inequalities, such as Chile and other countries in the global South and North.
In this workshop we tackle technomanegerial responses to climate change from decolonial, feminist, and gendered perspectives. Informed by feminist political ecology and feminist geographies, we question predominant solutions to climate change adaptation and mitigation and offer antipatriarchal and anticolonial readings of universal, technocratic, and institutional solutions. To counter these dominant approaches, we offer theories of embodiment centering the politics of everyday life and justice across diverse sites and species.
The goal is to both discuss and put in practice multi-sited critical analysis and decolonial feminist methodologies to better understand climate change challenges to offer more just solutions. The theoretical and methodological tools gained from this workshop will empower participants to deploy anticolonial and antipatriarchal approaches in their doctoral theses ensuring more just and inclusive understandings and solutions to climate challenges.
