Bio:
Sujatha is an interdisciplinary social researcher and educator with core expertise in how science, innovation, society and matters of public interest intersect. Her work takes her into the heart of scientific knowledge production, technological systems, and the science/policy interface, as well as into areas commonly designated as ‘social’—notably, community perspectives, everyday practices, and questions of justice. Her partnerships span both global North and global South settings.
She has led and supported numerous research and research training collaborations between scientists, engineers, and social scientists, focused on how best to understand, communicate, and respond to our shared planetary challenge of creating sustainable futures.
Drawing on her background in science, technology and society studies (STS), and public and international affairs, she is currently working on one of the foremost questions facing universities today.
How do we foster the kinds of productive engagement we need between diverse forms of knowledge and experience if we are to transform our energy and environmental systems, innovation systems, patterns of resource use and systems of governance? Can these engagements generate new and better ways of approaching climate and sustainable development goals?
