Biography
My research focuses on urban political ecology,
knowledge politics, and the study of environmental movements and urban
collective action, with a particular interest in environmental politics of
cities of the Global South. I have moved from critical studies of urban
ecosystem management and biodiversity protection, to critical infrastructure
studies of waste and sanitation, increasingly applying political ecological
analytical lenses. Since my PhD in 2008, I have developed a career as an
interdisciplinary research leader and Principal Investigator with several large
projects funded from Sweden, UK, South Africa, and EU and with empirical
studies in Cape Town, Kampala, New Orleans and Stockholm. I have supervised
several PhD students, Postdocs and Master/Honour students and I have extensive
experience in teaching and teaching administration from undergraduate to PhD
level. My research has involved building extensive international networks with
research groups in USA, Europe, and Africa. I have been invited as keynote
speaker to various universities in Europe, USA, and Africa, including for
instance University of Washington (in urban studies and ecology), University of
Maryland (collective action and urban environmental movement), University of
Witwatersrand (in urban political ecology), and University of Trier (in urban
studies and decolonization). In total, I have more than 26 peer-reviewed
publications since 2008, including 21 articles and 5 chapters with two upcoming
edited volumes at MIT Press and Routledge.

I regularly blog at these two research collectives that I have developed with others—The Situated UPE Collective and The Situated Ecologies Platform. I often re-blog posts here at Rhizomia.net (which are usually re-bloggings from the other sites).
