ABOUT

The EcoFem Lab is an interdisciplinary think-tank at the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息, St. Petersburg that explores the hidden connections between environmentalist and feminist ways of understanding the world鈥檚 most pressing problems. Researchers document cultural evidence of our assumptions about nature and gender to analyze how these assumptions undermine, reinforce, and reshape environmental justice and gender equity. The EcoFem Lab鈥檚 research argues that these cultural insights can be applied to increase representational justice in everyday life, in activism, and in the academy.
