Almost there! We are finishing our collaborative book between a group of Tz'utujil women in Guatemala and a small team from the @gcrf-ixchel.bsky.social. This book brings together some of the everyday food recipes of this group of women who were resettled to a new town after a disaster.

Save the date!

Despedidas, reencuentros y muchos planes con café de por medio. Se vienen cosas bonitas, pero también se terminan procesos y se cierran proyectos. 💜
Mientras tanto, mi maleta decidió quedarse un rato más 😂.
¡Hasta pronto, Lago Atitlán!

Yesterday I presented some of my work in @gcrf-ixchel.bsky.social as part of the session "Art as collaborative practice: Socio-environmental learning with communities" for the Edinburgh Environment & Development Network (EEDN).
Always a joy to share the use of creative arts in research!

In 2021, I spent some time with Maya women in Yucatán walking around their solares (home gardens) and talking about plants, land, food recipes, traditional medicine, water, and Maya ceremonies, amongst others.

In this paper I engage with their everyday work and territories.

Two of my favourite things in Edinburgh: its city layers and its free library workshops! ✨

2024 in nine photos, what a year!
Happy 2025! 🎉✨

In this paper, I followed decolonial and feminist geographic thought to look at the everyday (re)productive work of Maya women in their home gardens in the Peninsula of Yucatán, Mexico.

Do you know anyone who speaks Tz'utujil and would be interested in reading about the before/after processes of the 2005 landslide in Panabaj? We have a translated version out now!

A bit late in the game, but hi! I'm Ana - architect, environmental social scientist & human geographer. I'm currently a postdoc, working with Maya communities in post-disaster contexts as part of the Ixchel project at Edinburgh uni. I love working with Indigenous women around home-gardens and food.
