Oscar Hartman Davies

Visiting Scientist

Oscar is a Social Sciences Engagement Fellow at the School of Geography and the Environment, University of Oxford, and a visiting researcher at the Lab and the KTH Centre for Anthropocene History.

He is an environmental and cultural geographer whose research primarily considers the environmental governance implications of digital sensing technologies, in contexts spanning seabird conservation and marine protected area governance, sewage pollution monitoring in the UK, and landscape connectivity corridors.

His current fellowship involves developing participatory governance processes within Youngwilders, a youth-led nature recovery organisation he co-founded, which works to empower the next generation of environmental stewards in the UK.

Through his affiliation with Puistokatu 4: A Space for Science and Hope in Helsinki, he is working collaboratively to develop a similar approach in Finland.
