In collaboration with the organization Biomas, and Olympia Campbell, I'm organising a two week field course in Kenya called: "Socio-ecology of hunter-gatherer and nomadic populations in a changing world". The primary goal is to expose students to the value of conducting fieldwork in socioecology, ethnoecology, or biological anthropology among societies living nomadic lifestyles or that have only recently transitioned to sedentism.
Students will be introduced to key research questions and themes that can be explored in collaboration with communities living in different geographical and ecological regions in Kenya, as well as the methodologies used to conduct such research in an ethical and rigorous manner.
We are planning the first edition to take place in summer 2026 - so stay tuned for news!
