Challenging Elite Environmentalism: Stories from Brazil to India, by Ritodhi Chakraborty & Aline Carrara 

November 16, 2026 @ 10:00 – 11:30 CEST

In the fifth session of this online seminar series, we are delighted to welcome Ritodhi Chakraborty and Aline Carrara (Lincoln University) as our speakers. We will be discussing their co-authored paper “Challenging Elite Environmentalism: Stories From Brazil To India” (2025), in which they question hegemonic mainstream environmentalism and its insidious reproduction of elite aspirations and institutions; they provide an alternative framework that stems from the work of Indigenous, feminist, anti-racist, anti-casteist, anti/de/post-colonial thinkers and doers.

Join Zoom meeting.
