Carmela Garritano

Associate Professor
Department of International Studies
College of Liberal Arts

Carmela Garritano’s current project, African Energy Worlds: African Cinema of the Anthropocene, puts energy humanities scholarship in conversation with African film and media to demonstrate the crucial role of humanities-based research in addressing fossil-fuel dependence and anthropogenic climate warming, the worst effects of which are lived by people in the global South. 

Garritano will complete work on a book that combines energy humanities scholarship with African film and media.
