Ep 6. A research narrative: Why people perspectives matter to energy transitions

Progressive Practice Podcast Podcast

In this episode, we chat with Megan Davies, a researcher and lecturer at the Centre for Complex Systems in Transition (CST) at Stellenbosch University. Megan walks us through her thoughts and research into the energy landscape and ongoing energy transition. Her inquiring mind shines through, and she leaves us with some bold questions about the role of Renewable Energy in creating a more equitable society. 

For further exploring:
Energy Democracy - "an emergent social movement advancing renewable energy transitions by resisting the fossil-fuel-dominant energy agenda while reclaiming and democratically restructuring energy regimes"
Transdisciplinary Research - "moves beyond the bridging of divides within academia to engaging directly with the production and use of knowledge outside of the academy"

Publications:
Timothy Mitchell - Carbon Democracy
Cara Daggett - Petro-masculinity: Fossil Fuels and Authoritarian Desire
