Projects

Stories of Transformation, Spaces of Possibility: Participatory Approaches to Exploring Experiences of Change and Future Imaginaries in Wolfen-Nord

This participatory knowledge-transfer project develops innovative formats at the interface of research and practice. It addresses a central question: How can diverse experiences of transformation be made visible and brought into dialogue—and how might these conversations generate ideas for socially just, ecological, and democratic urban and neighbourhood development?

Animals, Power, and Space: More-than-Human Political Geographies of Animal Health

How are borders produced, legitimized, shifted, or contested in the context of the management of animal health? This research project examines more-than-human governance practices as they emerge through the management of infectious animal diseases, such as African swine fever and avian influenza.

Energy transition below ground? Subterranean Geographies of Transformation and the Geothermal Use of Mine Water in Mansfeld-Südharz

How is subterranean mine water negotiated, regulated, and valorized for geothermal use within contemporary debates on energy transitions in eastern Germany? This project investigates how energy transitions unfold “below ground,” while simultaneously illuminating the contested political negotiations and more-than-human relations that take shape “above ground.”
