Environmental Displacement
One of the key themes of my earlier and ongoing work has been how conservation practice has displaced communities from their homelands, or what is called conservation-induced displacement. Building on these contributions and collaborating with colleagues working on climate change and resource extraction, we have begun to explore the theme of environmental displacement more broadly. This includes how the Anthropocene – this broader geologic epoch in which humans are the primary drivers of environmental change – is characterized by various forms of displacement, from climate refugees to conservation-induced displacement.
