Ifor Duncan at Blue History Network’s Graduate forum

EcoViolence Postdoctoral researcher Ifor Duncan will be providing the introductory presentation for the Blue History Network’s Graduate forum at the Roosevelt Institute for American Studies, Leiden University. Ifor will present examples from his research at the intersections of political violence with devastated river ecologies and dispossessed communities. Drawing on moving image, sound investigation, and interviews from research in contexts where rivers and political violence intersect, his talk, ‘River Practice’ will reflect on water bodies as both sites of evidence and social and material archives.
