Climate adaptation & governance are still stuck in sedentary thinking, neglecting mobility and Indigenous expertise. We need a rethinking: 👉https://rgs-ibg.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/geo2.70054 #ClimateAdaptation #IndigenousKnowledge #ClimateMobility #MobilityJustice #LossAndDamage

#WindowFriday with a view of the Gulf of Thailand. It is so nice to be back in this country, which has inspired much of my research. Today, we spoke with migrant workers from Myanmar, who are increasingly establishing local roots in #Thailand due to the protracted conflict in #Myanmar.

I was really waiting for this. #Bluesky has now a bell function which helps to organize and prioritize your feed. Great improvement!

#photosunday some impressions of #AddisAbaba. Today, this city is growing at an unprecedented pace, and it seems there is only little space for its social and quotidian heritage. However, it is fascinating to be back after many years and to see how space-time is at work. #geography

But what happens when these shifts alter cultural knowledge itself? For the Moken, ‘dry season’ is now ‘tourist season’—a sign of how mobility loss reshapes epistemologies. Read more: 🔗 www.cuhemo.org/2025/02/18/c...

New #CuHeMo blog post online! It explores the evolving lifestyle of the #Moken on Surin Island between a #semi-nomadic past and sedentary future🏝️⛵ Governments around the world have long pressured Indigenous groups into #sedentarization — often in the name of climate adaptation & nature conservation.

The austrian right wing party #FPÖ 's push for Austrian universities to publish research only in German is peak absurdity. Science thrives on global collaboration, not linguistic isolation. #AcademicChatter #AcademicFreedom #ScienceForAll #KKFN

Just received yet another random email from a random #MDPI journal. No option to unsubscribe this time either. These #PredatoryJournals are beyond annoying. Looks like training the spam filter is the only solution. #PredatoryPublishing #AcademicChatter

🌍 It is good to see that #ClimateMobilities are becoming more streamlined on the international level with the new 13th WIM ExCom Technical Guide! It offers practical tools for integrating human (im)mobility into national #climateAdaptation plans (NAPs). #climatemigration unfccc.int/sites/defaul...

We argue that habitability is more than climate metrics—it’s about the interplay of people, place, culture, and power. From socio-cultural dimensions to spatial inequalities, we uncover the deeper forces shaping human-environment relationships. #ClimateChange #Inequality 2/4

📄 Thrilled to share our latest paper, led by Harald Sterly! 🌍 We explore #habitability in an increasingly unequal, connected, and changing world. The paper redefines habitability and its relational boundaries toward #inhabitability. Dive in 🧵 1/4 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Hello, butterfly world! I am new here, curious, and excited. I will be posting about #Migration, #HumanMobilities, #ClimateChange, #Adaptation, and #DigitalTransformations. Recently, I’ve also been working on non-economic loss and damage #NELD and the role of cultural #heritage in adaptation.
