PERSONAL PAGE

Brototi Roy is a postdoctoral researcher based at ICTA-UAB. She is a political ecologist and ecological economist focusing on socio-environmental justice movements. Within the REAL project, she focuses on decolonial degrowth using theories from post-development and delinking.

She completed her master’s and bachelor’s degrees in economics in India from Delhi and Calcutta respectively, and her PhD from ICTA-UAB looking at the contemporary political ecology of coal. She has been a visiting postdoctoral researcher at Lund University, Sweden, University of Antwerp, Belgium, and Central European University, Austria. For her, degrowth calls for re-politicizing the debate on social-ecological justice and equity.
