Conservation Ethnography
ETHNOMAD is a field-based cultural research organisation documenting living cultures under pressure. Through conservation ethnography, we follow the relationship between people, nature, and consequence, producing stories, films, archives, and publications for preservation, education, and institutional memory.
Discover Conservation Ethnography?
Conservation ethnography examines how conservation reshapes human lives, knowledge, and relationships with land. It does not oppose protection, but questions models that treat people as secondary to nature. Grounded in long-term fieldwork and listening, it understands landscapes as lived places shaped by memory, labour, belief, and restraint. It asks who decides what protection looks like, whose knowledge counts, and what is lost when land becomes a system rather than a home.
