Event details

CASA-IGDC Webinar Series

Land and natural resources are crucially shaped by their relationship to political authority, but what happens in situations when norms and institutions that shape land access and rights are in flux? In this webinar, we speak to three experts about how rights and access to land is shaped in the context of conflict, political transition and militarization.

We discuss the complex entanglements between struggles over land and control over territories– how the after-lives of political transitions and conflicts impact upon ongoing processes of agrarian change and more broadly, agrarian justice.

This webinar features Professor Alia Gana (French National Centre for Scientific Research-CNRS), Dr Eric Hoddy(University of York) and Professor Bengt Karlsson (Stockholm University). The webinar includes presentations by the three invited speakers followed by Q&A and discussion. The event will be co-moderated by IGDC Deputy Director Saba Joshi and CASA Director, Alf Gunvald Nilsen.
