The St Andrews Environmental Humanities Network
Outside the lab, The St Andrews Environmental Humanities Network launched in May 2025, bringing together researchers, students, and practitioners whose work engages with ecocultural issues ranging from the study of ancient landscape management and representations to investigations of contemporary sustainable behaviours and practices.
The Network’s aim is to foster interdisciplinary research and teaching as well as to serve as platform to engage with the world both within and beyond academia.
Environmental Humanities (EH) is an interdisciplinary field of study that explores the relationships between nature and culture. It combines traditional Arts and Humanities approaches with questions and methodologies from the social and natural sciences to examine the critical intersection of social and environmental issues.
The Network joins a number of centres across the University which address environmental concerns.
