| Introduction | For myself, I am a graduate student of Women's History with fields in Global, South Asian, Latin American, and Environmental history. My research and activist interests are in women’s engagement in the international contexts of environment, development, and human rights. My current research examines the historical complexities and specificities of rural women’s experiences with irrigation development in South Asia and Latin America during the period of 1945-1989. My research demonstrates how these experiences influenced historical shifts in the international discourses of development, environment, and human rights. |
