  \nMariana Cavalcanti \n\nDescription: \nWe are glad to invite you to a le
 cture by professor Mariana Cavalcanti as she visits our Department.About t
 he Presentation How does climate change transform how we read, write, te
 ach and tell urban histories? Drawing on ongoing ethnographic and document
 ary film research in and on the neighborhood of Caju, in Rio de Janeiro’s
  port region, the presentation will explore the challenges and potentials
  of narrating the city and its production from the perspective of its mult
 iple waters. I will do so by elaborating the theoretical underpinnings and
  empirical findings of the pilot web based documentary film project Águas 
 do Caju. This collective and collaborative project weaves together differe
 nt historical narratives of how this formerly imperial elite neighborhood\
 , squeezed between a massive complex of cemeteries, two expressways and k
 ilometers of land reclaimed from the sea to support port logistics and inf
 rastructure, became a metropolitan sacrifice zone.About the Presenter Mar
 iana Cavalcanti is currently Tinker Visiting Professor at Columbia Univers
 ity. She is Associate Professor of Sociology at the Institute of Social an
 d Political Studies of the State University of Rio de Janeiro (IESP/UERJ) 
 where she co-coordinates the research collectives Grupo CASA: estudos soci
 ais sobre moradia e cidade and ResiduaLab: laboratório de estudos sociais 
 sobre resíduos. She received her PhD in Social / Cultural Anthropology fro
 m the University of Chicago in 2007, served as Professor at the School of
  Social Sciences and History of the Getúlio Vargas Foundation (CPDOC/FGV,
  2008-15) and as Peggy Rockefeller Visiting Scholar at the David Rockefell
 er Center for Latin American Studies at Harvard University in 2020-21. Cav
 alcanti co-founded Casa Fluminense, a civil society association that aims
  to deepen democracy in Rio de Janeiro's metropolitan region in 2013, and
  collaborates in documentary film projects on the urban history of Rio de 
 Janeiro.  \n\nContact Information: \n Carolina Sá Carvalho c.sacarvalho@ut
