Pursuing Environmental Justice Through the Study of Community Voice and Photographs

February 28 @ 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm

Carolina Engagement Week Logo with four small images representing the mountains, coast, rural, and urban areas. Coastal Resilience Center logo with wave-like image and text reading "A U.S Department of Homeland Security Center of Excellence. Calloway and Dorman Laboratory for Climate and Justice Research."

Recent work shows that continual and repeated disruption disproportionately harms marginalized communities. The goals of this interactive session are to offer substantive opportunities for participants to engage with data – in the form of quotes and photographs – to support asset-based, theoretically grounded understandings of historically marginalized communities in the aftermath of climate disasters.

Presenters:

  • Simona Goldin, Research Professor, Department of Public Policy
  • Ruth Fetaw, Soc/Clin Research Assistant, Resilience Center
  • Cassandra Davis, Assistant Professor, Department of Public Policy
  • Megan Lacey (PhD student)
  • Nerissa Crawford (undergraduate)
  • Sydney Simpson-Vos (undergraduate)
