Brianna Castro

Brianna Castro is a PhD candidate in the Department of Sociology at Harvard University. Her research interests include the social dimensions of climate change adaptation, environmental migration, climate change mobilities, and the interplay between individuals and institutions in resilience and adaptation planning. Castro's dissertation examines how people adapt to changing climate conditions at the micro-level and how institutional contexts impact people's daily climate-related decisions in urban, peri-urban, and rural environments. She has conducted research on these topics in Colombia, South America, coastal North Carolina, Lagos, Nigeria, and Borneo, Indonesia.
