Pau Sanosa

Who am I?

I am an Environmental Anthropologist, interested in the territories conserved by local communities, based on the relationships of human groups with territories and animals and the way in which these relationships are constituted. I also consider global socio-environmental processes with which local communities interact.

My academic training starts with an Environmental Sciences degree at the University of Barcelona, a master degree in Protected Areas at the Autonomous University of Madrid and currently finishing a PhD in Social and Cultural Anthropology at the Autonomous University of Barcelona

My relationship with the study of nature-culture relationships and pastoral systems started in 2011 dealing with the set of traditional knowledge that makes it possible to carry out transhumance through the Conquense Royal Drove Road (Spain). Later, I have investigated the forms and processes of collective decision-making for the management of pastures in Sierra de Segura (Spain), as well as livestock knowledge and networks for the exchange of knowledge and support between livestock communities in the Catalan Pyrenees (Spain).
