Karine Gagné is an assistant professor of anthropology at the University of Guelph in Canada. Her research is based in the Indian Himalayas, where she studies climate change, climate knowledge, ethics of care, human-nonhuman animal relations, state production, and citizenship. Gagné is the author of Caring for Glaciers: Land, Animals, and Humanity in the Himalayas, for which she received the 2019 James Fisher Prize. She is currently working on a project, funded by the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada, to study how a limited technocratic understanding of the climate and related processes, like climate change, contributes to the vulnerability of mountain populations.
