Dr. Shiva's lecture was part of the Scripps College Humanities Institute's Fall 2003

program "Poverty." The Program in Science, Technology, and Society of the Claremont

Colleges was also a co-sponsor of this event.



Dr. Vandana Shiva is the founder and director of the Research Foundation

for Science, Technology and Ecology RFSTE), based in Dehra Dun, India.



Since 1982, the foundation has focused on protecting people' s rights from

threats to their environment by centralized systems of monoculture,

forestry, agriculture and fisheries. Dr. Shiva's goal is to conduct research

"with people, not on them" to create a greater understanding of "the interconnections

in the web of life."



Aside from her work with the RFSTE, Dr. Shiva has also written a number of

books, including Stolen Harvest, Ecofeminism, Breakfast of Biodiversity: The Truth

about Rain Forest Destruction, Biopiracy: The Plunder of Nature and

Knowledge, Staying Alive: Women, Ecology, and Development, and the recently published

Water Wars: Privatization, Pollution, and Profit.
