Preferred term

feminist environmental geographies  

Definition

  • Feminist environmental geographies seek to make explicit the spatial topographies of gendered relations with the natural world. Studies have focused on the ways in which women's relationships with nature have been enabled or constrained and how male-dominated social-economic power structures have perpetuated environmental harm.
