Dr Luciana Mendes Barbosa

Lecturer in Sociology (Climate Change)

Research Overview

I’m a human geographer whose research specializes in the politics of climate change, socio-environmental conflicts and development projects in the Global South. My research is focused on understanding the intersection between precarity, (climatic) hazards, and forms of resistance to injustices in contemporary Brazil. I hold a MSc in International Relations (Pontificia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais – PUC-Minas) and a BA (Hons) in Geography (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais – UFMG).
