This paper was so much fun to write as it was my first time writing across two very different research sites (technically my second time, book chapter will be coming soon!). Thank you to the reviewers who pushed me on this and helped make this passion project come to life

In this paper we consider how we can advance human and policy dimensions of hazards research by integrating insights from feminist approaches to the “everyday”

This bill still has to go through the House and get the governor’s signature, all of which is very likely. It is deeply unpopular across the state. Please help us raise hell about it.
Lots of great working coming our way from Historical Geography! If you've let your HGSG @geographers.bsky.social membership lapse, make sure you re-up by Tuesday when I send our early access information to @univnebpress.bsky.social.
In this paper, we propose three pillars of feminist livelihood studies to advance debates in the field: 1) integrating postcolonial and decolonial perspectives 2) social relational and intersectional analyses 3) incorporating environmental considerations and feminist political ecology #geosky

“Feminist livelihood studies: Mapping future directions” co-authored with the wonderful Ann M. Oberhauser and published in Geographical Research doi.org/10.1111/1745...
Just a horrific week. As a Kansan, my heart breaks for those lost on DC flight. As a scientist 🧪, funding freezes & stop work orders make me fear for future. As researcher working internationally, destruction of USAID is tragic. And as a human being, anti-DEI and anti-trans orders are enraging 🤬
Was hoping to spend my Sunday selling Girl Scout cookies with my daughter. Instead I'm trying to find and download Federal datasets and reports on climate change, trade and foreign aid so I can actually teach and research on these topics. USDA Climate Hubs still up for now - grab info while you can!
The number of people surprised by the long list of words NSF is targeting makes me think many of you all have not seen this: www.commerce.senate.gov/services/fil...
