Elisabeth Luggauer is a postdoctoral researcher and lecturer at the Department for European Ethnology (IfEE) at Humboldt University Berlin. Her research interests primarily emerge from the intersections between (concepts of) ‘the urban’ and ‘the environmental’. Elisabeth conducts ethnographic research that explores various dimensions of more than human urban everyday lives and the possibilities of doing ethnography beyond the human.

In her most recent project, “The Green and the City,” Elisabeth researches how ‘green’ – approached as entanglements of species and organisms –  becomes enacted and acts in shaping ideas of future urban cohabitations in the context of accelerating global warming.

She is also a member of IfEE’s Stadtlabor for Multimodal Anthropology and is affiliated with the ERC project “Urban Vibrations: How Physical Waves Come to Matter in Contemporary Urbanism” (WAVEMATTERS).
