Feminist scholars have long engaged with the deeply gendered dynamics of the societal relationships to nature, offering insights that enhance the understanding of the current ecological crisis. Following a brief introduction to a few core theoretical approaches, the main focus of the colloquium will be our shared conversation: discussing the readings, bringing in our questions and insights, and thinking through the wider debates together.
