What is this about?

Ecofeminist theories highlight how the structures that create the climate crisis and social inequality are intertwined; therefore, research that wishes to properly unpack these systems must address them together. However, ecofeminist theory can often remain abstract or theoretical when we think of applying it to research practice. By breaking down ecofeminism to highlight the tools it can provide to rethink our research on both the human and non-human, this module provides concrete examples of research dilemmas and how they may be overcome with ecofeminist principles.
