In this interview, the Postcolonial Hierarchies Network meets with Cecilia Roa, a Colombian scholar specializing in environmental justice, to explore the intricate intersections of energy, water struggles, and environmental justice.
Through the lens of participatory research, Cecilia delves into how these issues shape our understanding of peacebuilding, conflict, and sustainable development. Cecilia sheds light on problems associated with so-called clean energy paradigms and the critical need to recognize the limits of developmentalism and advance issues of justice. In addition, she reflects on the necessity of collaborative and transdisciplinary research, sharing powerful anecdotes from her fieldwork with communities navigating the frontlines of socio-ecological challenges.
