Description

This episode was recorded before the events of October 2023. 
In this episode, we speak to Palestinian geographer and PhD holder, Muna Dajani. Dajani's research focuses on documenting water struggles in agricultural communities under settler colonialism, as well as working on issues of environmental justice and green energy colonialism. Our discussion explores some of her research interests, focusing on the role of urban resource management, and how power asymmetries and discriminatory practises manifest in resource management planning. Additionally, we discuss the challenges of conducting research under these practices, touching on the decolonisation of knowledge production, as well as Dajani's efforts to document the collective memory of local land and agricultural practices in the fight against climate change.
