DESCRIPTION:The Moynihan Institute and the South Asia Center present Farhan
 a Sultana from the Geography and the Environment Department at the Maxwell
  School.&nbsp\;In this talk\, Sultana—the volume’s editor and a contributi
 ng author—discusses the book and how it engages grounded realities and the
 ories to offer pioneering interdisciplinary research on alternative framew
 orks for decolonized approaches that allow pursuing more meaningful climat
 e justice and uplifting of marginalized voices.Climate change and related 
 disasters are wreaking havoc across the globe\, but unevenly and inequitab
 ly. Climate coloniality is a critical framework for understanding the cont
 emporary climate crisis by exposing how legacies of colonialism\, imperial
 ism\, and capitalism co-produce and exacerbate the climate crisis\, create
  disproportionate and uneven impacts on those who contributed the least to
  climate change\, and influence global and local responses. Climate coloni
 ality is perpetuated through processes of neoliberalism\, racial capitalis
 m\, development interventions\, economic growth models\, media\, and educa
 tion. Confronting climate coloniality entails decolonizing climate discour
 ses and governance\, challenging the dominant framings and policies\, inte
 rrogating material\, geopolitical\, and institutional arrangements for tac
 kling the climate crisis\, and centering Global South and indigenous knowl
 edge\, experiences\, strategies\, and solutions. “Confronting Climate Colo
 niality: Decolonizing Pathways for Climate Justice” (Routledge\, October 2
 024) is a collection of essays that provides critical insights and strateg
 ies for transformative action and fosters deeper understandings of the str
 uctural injustices entangled with climate change and ecological degradatio
 n in governance\, framings\, policies\, responses\, and praxis.Farhana Sul
 tana is professor of geography and the environment\, senior research assoc
 iate of the South Asia Center\, and research director or environmental con
 flict and collaborationin in the Program for the Advancement of Research o
 n Conflict and Collaboration (PARCC). She is an internationally recognized
  interdisciplinary scholar of political ecology\, post‐colonial developmen
 t\, water and climate justice\, decolonizing knowledge systems\, and South
  Asia. Her scholarship integrates insights from interdisciplinary academic
  training\, international policy work and lived experience across continen
 ts. Author of several dozen publications\, her latest book is “Confronting
  Climate Coloniality: Decolonizing Pathways for Climate Justice” (Routledg
 e\, 2024).
