Anthropology, activism and local environmental knowledge 14 March 2023

https://mastodon.social/@RadicalAnthr...   / radicalanthro   http://radicalanthropologygroup.org/   / radicalanththropologygroup   This panel discussion explores ways that anthropology might inform, foster, and support climate & environmental activism through connection to local knowledge, or TEK (traditional ecological knowledge), with a focus on England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and Europe in general. The Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) 2022 report recognizes Indigenous alternatives to Western models as exemplary curation of biodiversity. How can anthropology support this theoretically and practically through landscape, relationality, storytelling, spirit, and connection? What would be equivalent to Indigenous TEK? How can this be instrumental in enhancing wider community connections to landscape, riverscape, skyscape? Panel includes:- • Raj Puri (Kent) environmental anthropologist and ethnobotanist; • Paul Powlesland, lawyer, rights of nature activist, Friend of the River Roding; • Pauline von Hellermann (Goldsmiths) regenerative anthropology, the Commons. • Richard Jones (Leicester) medieval historian, Old English placenames as repository of knowledge about flood control; • Magda Buchczyk (CARMAH Berlin) material culture, museums, history and memory Facilitators: Camilla Power, Helen Cornish
