Sneha Sharma works as Junior Project Manager at the ICON Institut in Cologne after having conducted research at the University of Bonn (2015-2022). Her lived experiences growing-up in the busy streets of Kolkata, India, shaped her interest in urban sociology and ethnographic methods. Sneha published Waste(d) collectors.

Isaac´s research interest is in the relationship between the state, institutions and development, with a particular focus on the role of the state in economic development and the entrepreneurial state. Hanna Geschewski is a doctoral researcher at the University of Bergen, Norway. She developed a particular interest in applying concepts from political ecology and social theory to analyse aspects of justice and power asymmetries in changing socio-environments, especially along Global-North-South trajectories. She co-published her research (with M. Islar) on the Second International Airport in the Journal of Political Ecology (2022).
