Environmental Anthropology and Climate Change: Methodological Innovations and Advancements for Social Science in the Digital Age 
CHAIRS: ZANOTTI, Laura and SUISEEYA, Kimberly R. Marion (Purdue U), WILMOT, Fiona (Independent) Mangrove Matters?: A Foray into Proproots Post-Modernism 
KITNER, Kathi R. (Intel Labs) A Collaborative Collage: The Human Side of the Internet of Things
WENTWORTH, Chelsea (High Point U) Using Visual Cognitive Elicitation in Environmental Anthropology
 ZANOTTI, Laura and SUISEEYA, Kimberly R. Marion (Purdue U) From Presence to Influence: Examining the Politics of Indigenous Representation in Global Environmental Governance
 
ABSTRACT:
ZANOTTI, Laura and SUISEEYA, Kimberly R. Marion (Purdue U) Environmental Anthropology and Climate Change Methodological Innovations and Advancements for Social Science in the Digital Age. The 21st Conference of Parties to the 2015 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change held in Paris, France marks almost thirty years of climate negotiations, assessments, and panels. Within environmental anthropology, political ecology frameworks have sought to attend to the increasingly multi-scalar and nested contexts in which climate change and environmental governance takes place. This panel addresses the possibilities, limitations, and ethical considerations of mixed, plural and digital methods within environmental anthropology and their effectiveness at addressing the spatial and temporal scales at which local to global environmental governance is currently enacted.
Session took place in Vancouver, B.C. Canada at the 76th Annual Meeting of the Society for Applied Anthropology, March 29 - April 2, 2016.

ABSTRACT:
CRUZ TORRES, Maria L. (ASU) and VÁZQUEZ-LEÓN, Marcela (U Arizona) Violence, Displacement, and Resilience Engaging with Multiple Experiences and Perspectives in the Americas. This session explores the many ways in which violence and displacement shape the well-being and daily lives of people. By bringing together case studies that span different theoretical and methodological perspectives, panel members examine the lived realities, challenges, and strategies of those living or leaving violent environments. The papers highlights contributions on a range of topics focusing on forced migration, refugees, food insecurity, poverty, social control, gender, and health, among others.  Drawing from our experiences conducting fieldwork in various settings we also discuss the outcomes and implications for applied anthropology.

Round Table: LPOs: Where Practice and the Academy Meet, Part I

Round Table: LPOs: Where Practice and the Academy Meet 
 
CHAIR: RE CRUZ, Alicia and KRIEGER, Laurie (UNT), LIND, Jason (USF) 
 
ROUNDTABLE PARTICIPANTS: RE CRUZ, Alicia and KRIEGER, Laurie (UNT), LIND, Jason (USF)
 
RE CRUZ, Alicia, KRIEGER, Laurie, and LIND, Jason (UNT) Round Table LPOs Where Practice and the Academy Meet. This round table opens a conversation between SfAA members and LPO representatives to benefit both. The dual goals are 1) to better identify the needs and challenges practitioners face and 2) to discuss communication paths between practicing anthropologists and academically-based anthropologists in order to better understand practitioners’ contributions to anthropological knowledge, methodologies, and engagement with a panoply of diverse cultural, social, humanitarian, and political-economic issues.
