My essay on “slow resistance” to long-proposed hydropower dams & diversions in the Salween River Basin is out with @newmandala.bsky.social ! It’s based on my PhD research & an article co-authored with @drvanessalamb.bsky.social in Antipode. www.newmandala.org/slow-resista...

I wrote about food and the work to create "solidarity infrastructures" in the #Salween, particularly the work by women who provide food for the movement, with @zalifung.bsky.social www.roadsides.net/articles/8234

In their contribution to our latest issue, @drvanessalamb.bsky.social and @zalifung.bsky.social show how food preparation by Karen women for anti-dam gatherings is a form of solidarity infrastructure in the Salween River Basin at the Thai–Myanmar border. www.roadsides.net/articles/8234

New paper with @drvanessalamb.bsky.social in @roadsides.bsky.social We show how food preparation, primarily undertaken by older Karen women, is key to contesting long-proposed hydropower dams & water diversions in the Salween River Basin Thanks editors @mattrest.bsky.social & Dolly Kikon

Please join us! I am co-convening 3 Royal Geographical Society panels on Feminist and Gendered Geographies of Resistance with @zalifung.bsky.social and Rebecca Elmhirst at the University of Birmingham next week. A great lineup of presentations. bit.ly/4lgkPnk @rgsibg.bsky.social

Just discovered that @austgeo.bsky.social is on BlueSky! My (relatively) new paper shows how researchers can build trust & collaborate with civil society actors online & across multiple borders (geographic, material, sociocultural, etc). This can build the foundations for in-person fieldwork.

Thanks @polgeographygroup.bsky.social

looking forward to presenting on speculative and “amorphous” unbuilt infrastructures in the Salween River Basin at the upcoming Beyond Infrastructures conference @infranortherc.bsky.social

a great and much needed piece

Nikolaos Olma and Janine Hauer ask how infrastructures become instruments of slow violence in their introduction to the latest issue of roadsides. Out now!

The other huge problem is how long they take. How can ECRs meet the essential criteria if they're spending all their time burning out writing job applications? Jobs now just seem to be passing between established researchers who move institutions for better working conditions.
