Anisha Nazareth

Anisha Nazareth was a Scientist with the Equitable Transitions program. She worked at SEI US from August 2020 until June 2025. Most of her work focused on the interactions between climate crises and global and local inequalities. Anisha used political ecology, political economy and critical climate justice framings to understand the power dynamics that create and maintain injustices in climate governance and climate action.

Anisha has contributed to SEI’s work on carbon inequality, exploring how different income groups make starkly different contributions to global carbon emissions. She has also studied equity in the international climate space: the impact of the pandemic on equitable climate negotiations and the equity implications of prominent anti-fossil fuel norms.
