Ekaterina Gladkova

Ekaterina Gladkova is a PhD researcher in Green Criminology at Northumbria University in Newcastle. Her doctoral project focuses on the links between support for farming intensification and environmental (in)justice. The project examines global, national and local institutional assemblages that advance intensive farming projects and various forms of support behind it. It also scrutinises the impact of intensification on the communities in close proximity to the farms, paying particular attention to environmental decision-making around farming intensification. Ekaterina’s research interests include environmental justice, food production and environmental harm. Her previous research concentrated on environmental and climate change governance in the Chilean Antarctic.
