Research

The Oslo School of Environmental Humanities aims to stimulate environmental research that asks innovative questions and seeks dialogue across disciplinary divides, and beyond academia.

OSEH Collaboratories

The OSEH Collaboratories are interdisciplinary research groups that work together to ask new research questions on the global environmental and climatic crisis. 
 
  • Cracked soil Anthropogenic Soils

    A science-humanities-arts collaboratory on soil care in contaminated times. Anthropogenic Soils aims to start conversations around soils from multiple disciplinary perspectives.

  • Weta, Augmented, Insect, Close-Up, Organism Bionic Natures

    Across the world, emergent technologies are being developed and put to work that replace, augment or transform existing ecological processes—creating new bionic natures, cyborg ecologies composed of organic and artificial elements. What happens to the idea of nature when nature becomes a cyborg?

  • Image may contain: Water resources, Water, Azure, Natural landscape, Cloud. Critical Petroaesthetics

    What is the cultural impact of petroleum, and how might the aesthetics of oil be a factor holding back progress on a transition to alternative energy? Scholars of literature, media, rhetoric, musicology, theology, and political science are looking for answers to these questions.
