Research Seminar in Sociology of Law with Gilbert Ajebe Akame
Climate Change, the Green Energy Transition, and Sámi Children's Right to a Future
A Relational and Critical Children's Rights Approach to Climate Justice
As part of my interdisciplinary, article-based thesis, one of my core articles adopts a socio-legal approach to explore how Sami children express environmental and cultural values through arts-based workshops and outdoor nature activities. The article combines legal analysis with ethnographic and participatory methods to critically examine the intersections between Indigenous customary law, climate justice, and children's rights. I am especially interested in how law is experienced, contested, and reinterpreted in practice, particularly by children as active rights-holders.
Gilbert Ajebe Akame is a PhD Research Fellow at the Faculty of Law and Changing Arctic Research School - UiT The Arctic University of Norway.
