Janina Dannenberg
Janina Dannenberg is a sustainability scientist with a specialisation on the intersection of gender and socio-ecological crisis and transformation. She leads the project “Nuclear Justice and Gender in the Sea of Islands” at the Institute of Geography, University of Hamburg. It focusses on the socio-ecological impacts of nuclear weapons and their interaction with climate changes through a gender lens in order to identify local and international strategies of resistance, resilience, and survival; and gender-transformative pathways towards climate and nuclear justice. Before focussing on nuclear justice, she has worked on the role of collective landownership in crisis transformation (Dissertation at Leuphana University, Lüneburg), on the protection of human rights defenders and on gender in energy transition.
