Island and Coastal Ecologies Workshop 2024
January 17 - January 21
The seascapes and landscapes of Southeast Asia provide a window into the deep historical connections between the environment and peoples who call Southeast Asia home. These engagements have shaped communities’ relationship with the landscape and provide a backdrop to the intersections among various forms of social, political, historical, and environmental processes. Coastal and island communities, in particular, continue to offer a suite of potential responses to environmental perturbations. This workshop will bring together a multidisciplinary group of scholars and community members to critically examine emerging issues on environmental dynamics in the context of local coastal ecologies. Focused on the intensified anthropogenic and climate change impact on landscapes, seascapes, and cultures, we will address pressing issues of local coastal ecologies by providing a platform where scholars, academics, policymakers, and communities can engage.
