Dr. Sofía Zaragocin is a widely recognized scholar in geography, known for her innovative contributions to feminist and decolonial frameworks in Latin America. Her recent work centers on the Galápagos Islands, where she develops the concept of “island feminisms” through feminist political ecology and Latin American Pacific decolonial feminist perspectives.

Her research builds on longstanding collaborative work with feminist organizations in the Galápagos, engaging feminist geography to address gender-based violence and advance critical climate justice within conservation contexts. In this talk, Dr. Zaragocín reflects on “doing research otherwise,” highlighting non-extractive, decolonial approaches grounded in island feminist perspectives.
