Kathryn Furlong

I'm an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography at the Université de Montréal. I also hold the Canada Research Chair in Water and Urbanization and act as co-director of the Ethics and Environment section of the Center for Research on Ethics (CRÉ). My research focuses on the social and environmental consequences of political-economic restructuring for water management and governance, particularly in the context of cities. I work at the intersection of economic and urban geography and political ecology examining issues related to the provision of municipal services, socio-technical networks, consumption and the links between practice and ethics.
