This virtual panel will feature organizers and members of a transnational research collective that convenes graduate researchers based in South Africa and the United States whose research critically examines the distributional consequences of the laws, policies, development programs, and technological innovations that entail the “green” transition. The collective is organized by the Southern Centre for Inequality Studies (SCIS) at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg and the Rapoport Center for Human Rights and Justice at the University of Texas at Austin. Members meet monthly to discuss cutting edge research, hear from leading scholars in the field, and workshop each other’s scholarship. Panelists from both institutions, including some of the participating researchers, will reflect on the substantive questions examined through this collective, while considering the lessons learned from convening graduate researchers across borders and scholarly disciplines.
