Biography
Hannah Larkin is a Doctoral Researcher in the Department of Anthropology at Durham University. Her research explores how communities living within ecologically ‘ruined’ landscapes respond to climate change, with particular focus on climate emotions, moral injury, and practices of hope and regeneration.Her work examines how environmental degradation, histories of extraction, and post-industrial conditions shape collective experiences of grief, ethical life, and future-making. In her research, she examines how climate change is experienced not only as an environmental crisis, but as an affective and moral condition and how communities live with environmental damage whilst continuing to cultivate meaningful, liveable futures.
