Sandra Jasper is a junior professor at Humboldt University of Berlin, specializing in urban geography and environmental studies. Her work focuses on urban nature, brownfields (abandoned industrial sites), human-animal-environment interactions, and the intersection of health, biodiversity, and pollution in cities. She also engages with soundscapes and feminist theory.
Education: She holds a PhD in geography. Current Projects: Writing a monograph on experimental spaces of West Berlin, supported by a Graham Foundation Award. Publications: Co-editor of The Botanical City (2020) and co-author/co-producer of the documentary Natura Urbana: The Brachen of Berlin (2017).
Research emphasizes how urban fallows act as 'acoustic refuges,' fostering biodiversity and providing respite from urban noise. Case studies include Berlin's Tempelhof Airport and other disused sites. Her work challenges traditional notions of cities as solely noisy environments.
Awards: Recipient of the Graham Foundation Award for her monograph project.
