Santaoja, Minna
Beskrivning av forsknings
Experienced transdisciplinary researcher in environmental social sciences, leaning towards environmental humanities. Doctor in environmental policy. My research focuses on knowledge practices and environmental agency in different contexts. I have worked on sustainability of urban development and sustainable diets, including pioneering phenomena such as veganism and entomophagy. Human-insect relationships is one long-term thread in my work. My dissertation focused on amateur naturalism and citizen science, and I continue to work on the issues of technologies in human-nature relations and in biodiversity knowledge management. I am interested in arts&crafts -collaborations in science. I have a passion for creative scholarly writing.Utbildning
