Instrumentalizing ‘uninhabitability’ at a time of climate change: The case of Barbuda after Hurricane Irma
The notion of uninhabitability in climate research is used to characterize a place considered no longer livable as a result of climate change. However, there is limited empirical academic work demonstrating how it is more than a condition, but a contested socio-political construct that can be exploited, particularly in post-disaster contexts. This paper examines how uninhabitability is framed discursively and used to justify public actions in res…
Justicia alimentaria, de la tierra y climática en el Caribe: Respuestas sistémicas al Covid-19 como estado de emergencia climática prolongada
Through an interdisciplinary conversation in the context of the project: Food Insecurity in Times of Climate Change: Sharing and Learning from Bottom-up Responses in the Caribbean Region, we expose the voices, history and knowledge of local communities and activists in Barbuda, Belize, Colombia (San Andres and Providencia), Jamaica and Puerto Rico to the food insecurity and ecological crisis in the Caribbean.

As a result, carefully designed historic wells are strategically located around the island. With th…
