Interdisciplinary degree studying the interrelationship between people and plants. My dissertation titled 'More-than-human winegrowing: collaboration, conviviality and knowledge-making in Slovakia' was a multispecies ethnography focusing on how natural winegrowers collaborate with humans and nonhuman others to grow and make their wine. In this project, I conducted 6 weeks of fieldwork in Slovakia and carried out ethnographic research methods like participant observation and semi-structured interviews.
