Webinar: Discussing Development: Forests and Fields

Date and Time: Dec 14, 2022 from 3:00-4:30pm HST

Register via Zoom webinar [new window]

In this segment of the Luce Southeast Asia in Transition Webinar Series, we explore the story of development from varied perspectives, putting local interactions with the development paradigm and the more-than-human world into a broad conversation. Our speakers include academic, practitioner, and local voices. In this final webinar, we will foreground the vegetal landscape, looking at how forests and agricultural taskscapes are affected by the discourses and projects of development. Indigenous perspectives on landscapes and their alteration in the name of development will be our primary focus here.
