UCPH environmental humanities researchers

Environmental Humanities Forum (EH Forum) is a forum for researchers that engage in conversations on environmental perspectives and challenges. The forum is a strategic initiative at the Faculty of Humanities to cultivate and promote activities, collaboration, and research projects within the interdisciplinary field of environmental humanities.

The EH Forum is an internal research network of researchers at the University of Copenhagen, who are interested in the diverse field of environmental humanities.

The aim is to spark conversations around environmental issues and although the network primarily consists of researcher within the humanities, all interested researchers at the University of Copenhagen are welcome to join the network.

The EH Forum is coordinated centrally at the Faculty of Humanities and run with input from the members.
