Tracy Qiu, Colonial Narratives in Environmental Conservation and Botanical Science

This presentation examines how colonization and decolonization relates to Western environmental conservation. Drawing on themes from the environmental humanities, Western conservation movements, scientific imperialism, and botanical collection, the presentation highlights how European views on ‘landscape’, ‘nature’, and ‘wilderness’ have naturalized into contemporary conservation discourse. Through the examination of colonial ideologies in environmental conservation narratives, the presentation also aims to explore what decolonizing and decentering interventions can look like in this context. 0:00 Intro 0:18 Tracy Qiu 37:38 Q&A
