SUMMARY:Conversations in Conflict Studies: Deferred Water Injustice (DWI)
LOCATION:Eggers Hall 400A\, Eggers Hall\, Syracuse\, NY 13244
DESCRIPTION:Despite sitting within the world’s largest river delta\, Dhaka
 \, the capital of Bangladesh\, has become increasingly dependent on groun
 dwater as rapid urbanization and severe surface-water pollution have tran
 sformed the city’s waterscape. While policy seeks to reduce this dependen
 ce through more sustainable alternatives\, Dhaka’s expanding peri-urban f
 rontier\, which is also an industrial belt\, still relies almost entirely
  on privately extracted groundwater.\n\nDrawing on archival research and 
 fieldwork across peri-urban settlements\, Avia Nahreen examines household
 s’ dependence on pumps that draw from aquifers government agencies monito
 r sparsely. She terms the water injustices arising from this arrangement 
 “deferred water injustice”: the production of present-day water abundance
  by displacing its ecological and social costs into the future\, while se
 lective measurement keeps those costs politically invisible.\n\nAvia Nahr
 een is a Ph.D. candidate in the Geography and the Environment Department.
  Her research examines urban water politics\, environmental injustice and
  the layered experiences of water infrastructure in Dhaka. She explores g
 roundwater dependence\, colonial water legacies and everyday struggles an
 d possibilities surrounding water access.\n\nLunch will be provided.\n\nh
