Maia is a PhD student at the University of Brighton, affiliated with the Centre for Spatial, Environmental and Cultural Politics. Her qualitative research explores the relation between climate-related water insecurities (including floods, extreme weather and contamination) and forced im/mobility amongst marginalised communities in Newham, London. Drawing on political ecology, urban and justice scholarship, Maia hopes to highlight how urban marginality shapes and is shaped by climate-mobility emergencies in ways that challenge Eurocentric dichotomies that have long dominated research and policy in these fields, including: North-South, developed-developing, human-nature and vulnerable-resilient.
