Margherita Vita

Margherita Vita (she/they) is an Italian Master’s student in anthropology and environmental history with research experience on extractivism and political ecology in Chile, Mozambique and Italy. She currently lives between Venice and Terranova di Pollino, in Basilicata (Southern Italy). From there she is carrying out research on the memory of the anti-nuclear movement and the environmental history of the region. The recent interest in visual anthropology is part of her research effort to decolonize her own methods and storytelling. A commitment which goes from following a training course as a facilitator of participative processes to realizing her first short film on her family history of migration between Basilicata and Germany.
