About
Terre Satterfield is a leading scholar in environmental decision-making and risk perception, whose work bridges cultural anthropology, sustainability science, and policy. Her research focuses on how values, identity, and social imaginaries shape responses to environmental change, particularly in the contexts of food systems, climate adaptation, and resource management. Satterfield is widely recognized for advancing the concept of "cultural risk" and for developing frameworks that integrate local knowledge and ethical considerations into environmental governance. Her most-cited work, including the 2025 study "Sociotechnical imaginaries for Canadian agri-food futures: a farmer survey" (8 citations), exemplifies her commitment to understanding how agricultural communities envision and navigate technological and ecological transitions. With over 6,000 total citations, her contributions have influenced fields from conservation biology to science and technology studies. She has served as a lead author for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and has been instrumental in shaping global dialogues on just transitions and the social dimensions of environmental risk. Satterfield’s work remains essential for students and researchers seeking to understand the human dimensions of environmental crises.
