Enhancing theory and methods in European Ethnoecology

Cel

Understanding many of today's most pressing social and environmental problems, including ecological degradation, climate change, loss of biological and cultural diversity, water scarcity, and economic inequalities requires expertise from researchers with different perspectives, methods, and sites. Ethnoecology, with its multidisciplinary approach to understand how humans in different settings interrelate with the environment, is well positioned to study those problems. Ethnoecology is a rapidly growing field of research, gaining recognition from professionals, students, researchers, and the public. However, ethnoecology is relatively undeveloped in the European Research Area.

This proposal is oriented to strengthen the development of ethnoecology in Europe by setting up an Ethnoecology Laboratory at the Institute for Environmental Sciences and Technology (ICTA) at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB). The activities of the Ethnoecology Laboratory will include:
1) four specialized seminars in ethnoecology;
2) two field courses on methods in ethnoecology, one from the social and one from the natural sciences. 1) and 2) will be part of the Environmental Sciences PhD program at ICTA-UAB;
3) an information centre and facilities for the analysis of ethnoecological data;
4) at least three international research projects offering fieldwork possibilities to students;
5) internships in local and international NGOs and research centres; and
6) a monthly e-newsletter to be distributed to participants in the Ethnoecology Network.

Through offering new courses, linking expertise across disciplines, and providing hands-on training of students, the activities of the laboratory will tackle the three hurdles that have prevented the development of ethnoecology in Europe: the brain drain of European students and professionals, the parochialism of standard graduate training in ethnoecology, and the absence of mentoring on how to collect data in the field.
