Biography
Riikka Armanto is an ecologist wanting to embrace proactive creation
of hoped-for futures. She studies farmers’ agency and
futures consciousness and how to strengthen them in future workshops. Even though the intriguing nature of
alternative yet-not-existing futures stole her heart and made her jump
from experimental ecology to qualitative research, she still feels very
warmly about invertebrate interactions and biodiversity in agricultural
ecosystems.
Research
