Line Jespersgaard Jakobsen serves as a Research Fellow at the Department of Food and Resource Economics within the Faculty of Science at the University of Copenhagen, specializing in the Section for Global Development. Based at Rolighedsvej 23 in Frederiksberg, Denmark, her work bridges academic research and practical development challenges with regional expertise in Colombia. Contact details include email line@ifro.ku.dk and phone +4535329420. Her research program critically examines: Transitional justice implementation in post-conflict societies, particularly Colombia's adaptation of global norms Corporate complicity in conflict through counterinsurgency practices and extractive industry operations Ethnographic analyses of coal mining sites, corporate complaints mechanisms, and community-corporate power dynamics Land dispossession risks facing artisanal miners and alternative livelihood frameworks Political ecology of resource extraction and corporate social responsibility ambiguities Analysis of her 2023-2025 publications reveals a methodological commitment to ethnographic fieldwork combined with critical policy analysis. Her work demonstrates how global transitional justice scripts are negotiated locally while exposing corporate strategies in conflict-affected extractive zones. Key thematic clusters include corporate accountability in post-conflict settings, subjectivity formation in mining communities, and tension between global norms and local realities. No scientific awards, fellowships, or major prizes were documented in available sources. Information regarding graduate student supervision, research grant acquisition, or dedicated laboratory facilities remains unspecified beyond her affiliation with the Section for Global Development.
