Episode Synopsis

Francisca Aguiló Mora is Senior Lecturer of Spanish in Columbia University's Department of Latin American and Iberian Cultures and co-director of the Spanish Language Program. In this conversation, she discusses how the Climate Humanities can take a central position in the L2 classroom, and how she has begun to put this into practice in her own teaching. We also discuss a recent article, "Climate Humanities in the L2 Classroom: Radical Hope for an Uncertain Future," which she co-authored with Almudena Marin Cobos in the journal Radical Teacher as part of a volume dedicated to critical DEI.
