Panels on mobility and Latin American pastoralism were among the sessions at this year’s International Union of Anthropological and Ethnological Science Conference (IUAES), held on 14-20 October in Delhi, India. The conference, with the heading ‘Marginalities, Uncertainties, and World Anthropologies: Enlivening Past and Envisioning Future‘ attracted numerous panels focused on nomadic communities and pastoralists all over the globe.
PASTRES affiliate researchers organised three panels at the conference, as part of the many sessions supported by the Commission for Nomadic People (CNP). These included Pastoral Marginalities and Uncertainties in Latin America Today, by Greta Semplici and Pablo Manzano; Modernities, Mobilities and Uncertainties, by Natasha Maru and Diksha Narang; and Pastoral Mobilities and Ecological Variabilities: Responses to Socio-Political Stressors and contextual Adaptabilities in South Asia, convened by Rashmi Singh, Suraj Pratap Singh Bhati and Ryan Unks.
