Kate Sherren is a geographer and applied social scientist who spends most of her time thinking about landscape change. She studies how we see, use, experience, and value modified landscapes like farms, coasts, and hydroelectric dams—among other things—and how in the face of climate change we can work collectively towards more sustainable and just future for the places we live in and care about. She has over 60 peer-reviewed publications across landscapes in Canada as well as New Orleans, Southeastern Australia, Romania and the Falkland Islands, and is an Associate Editor for Society and Natural Resources and Rangeland Ecology and Management. She hails from Newfoundland but after a decade in Australia now lives back in Halifax, Nova Scotia
