Bethan Le Masurier

I am a PhD student in the Humanities and Social Sciences department in Penryn, Cornwall.

My research uses anti-oppressive theory to develop more equitable and functional approaches to heritage theory and practice in the Anthropocene. My approach is transdisciplinary, drawing on a wide range of fields, including ecofeminism, land rights, anti-capitalism, and well-being theory. My case studies look at the role of heritage work in contexts of climate migration and climate refugees, landscape management, rewilding, and cultural revival. My supervisor is Dr Jamie Hampson.

I completed my BA (Hons) in Ancient History and Archaeology at Exeter in 2018, and completed my MA in International Heritage Management and Consultancy, also at Exeter, in 2022.

I speak Spanish and small amounts of Cornish, Dutch, Portuguese, French and BSL. I am a singer-songwriter and musician.
