Devendraraj Madhanagopal

Welcome to my website!

Trained as an environmental sociologist, I have conducted research on the social and political dimensions of climate change, environmental politics, environmental justice, climate justice, climate change adaptation, health and wellbeing, and disaster risk management. I hold a Ph.D. in Sociology from the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (Mumbai, India). Since 2019, I have been a faculty member in the School of Sustainability at XIM University (Odisha, India).

I have published two book monographs as author/co-author, and three edited volumes as lead co-editor. As an academic, I have designed and delivered courses on environmental and social issues, gender, disaster management, sustainable development, human-wildlife conflicts, social entrepreneurship, food security, public administration, and governance.

I have received several international fellowships and travel grants over the years. I continue to network and collaborate with peers in China, the United States, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, France, Norway, South Africa, Brazil, Vietnam, and Kenya to strengthen my research and teaching. I am always open to discussing potential collaborations. If you are interested in collaborating with me, learning more about my work, or have any other queries, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at "devendraraj.mm@gmail.com."
