Inevitable uninhabitability? Indigenous solutions to global challenges | Dr. Carol Farbotko
August 30, 2023
A discussion with Carol Farbotko from Griffith University on her project that aims to understand what indigenous solutions to global challenges look like, with a particular focus on climate change in atoll countries like Tuvalu. With Kevin Clements and Volker Boege, the conversation explores the narrative of inevitable uninhabitability, habitability thresholds, and the impact of adaptation measures on the ability to stay put. To what extent are Pacific experience and philosophies informing decisions by policy makers and development partners, and how can climate change knowledge be decolonized?
