This is a visiting scholarship position at the Institute of Languages, Cultures, and Societies (Centre for Latin American and Caribbean Studies). I worked on the editorial project titled "Testimony to a Mourning Planet: Art, Recognition, and Justice Beyond the Human in Latin America," which brings together the work of scholars, artists, and activists attending to other-than-human forms of suffering and testimony-making in Latin America, to shed new light on theories of multispecies and planetary justice. The project asks: How do claims for environmental justice, artistic practices, and territorial activism encounter one another, and how might these encounters foster legal theories rooted in mutual recognition, where all are addressed as equals deserving of dignity and respect?
Engaged in a curriculum research project at the University of California, Berkeley, under the supervision of Michael Mascarenhas, Chair of the Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management. The project focuses on developing best practices in assessment for the course ESPM 163AC - Environmental Justice: Race, Class, Equity, and the Environment. The goal is to increase enrollment and improve the success rate of students by incorporating formative assessment practices into the course structure. The course, cross-listed in ESPM and Sociology, offers an overview of environmental justice, examining the racial, class, labor, and equity dimensions on environmental degradation and regulation. This project aims to make the course more accessible to a larger number of students, meeting the current high demand for this content.
