The Department of Geography and Planning is pleased to share a recent publication co-authored by PhD Candidate Sanjo Kazeem Abolarin, Dr. Kesha Fevrier and Dr. Warren Mabee.
The article, From extraction to equity: Rethinking compensation and procedural justice in Nigeria's emerging lithium economy, examines compensation and procedural fairness among extractive communities in Nigeria's emerging lithium sector. The findings contribute to ongoing debates on critical mineral governance, energy transitions, and environmental justice in the Global South.
Sanjo Kazeem Abolarin's PhD research expands on this topic, focusing on energy justice, resource governance, sustainable energy extraction and transition minerals.
