We invite you for the 2025 Piers Blaikie Lecture on the theme of “Exploring the contours of feminist political ecology: Dialogues in the Norfolk Landscape”.
Rebecca Elmhirst, Professor of Human Geography, University of Brighton joins Sabine Virani (Co-founder and Co-lead, Green New Deal Norwich); Helen Baczkowska (writer and ecologist), Rebecca Stonehill (Writer/ activist, Norwich Writers Rebel) and Hannah Claxton (Founder of Eves Hill Veg) for an engaging conversation on what it means to be a woman land defender globally and in Norfolk. The panellists will deliberate on some pressing issues related to the times we live in, each shedding light on how they engage in the embodied ways of feminist political ecology. They will explore how questions of justice and power show up as they create hopeful alternatives to existing systems.
The event is curated by the Global Environmental Justice Group and supported by our friend and former colleague Prof Emeritus Piers Blaikie.
The discussion will be followed by a reception with drinks and refreshments.
