Eeva Berglund
Eeva Berglund is Adjunct Professor of Environmental Policy at the Aalto School of Arts, Design and Architecture where she teaches part-time in the multidisciplinary Creative Sustainability programme. Academically supported by a doctorate in social anthropology and an MSc in urban planning, both from the UK, she has long explored issues around environmental politics and transformations in notions of knowledge and expertise.
She works on the histories and cultures of design as they relate to environmental thought and policy. Her interest in these began with ethnographic research in Germany in the 1990s, and continued with engagements with urban activism in London and Helsinki. Currently she is working through data from the ERA-Net funded CONTOURS project, which allowed her to do new fieldwork in Kainuu.
