Profile

My research interests include environmental and climate justice, environmental political theory, animal ethics, and the rights of nature. My PhD project focuses on multispecies justice as a novel way of studying climate justice. Its emphasis is on the ontological foundations, justice principles, and political-institutional features that would fit a multispecies approach to climate justice. The project combines theoretical work with qualitative empirical studies amongst policymakers and activists. I am supervised by Prof. Christoph Henning and Dr. Adrienne de Ruiter.
