Fadia Nordtveit PhD

Dr. Fadia Nordtveit's (previously Dr. Fadia Hasan) research on environmental communication, global youth movements, new media technologies and social justice led her to found The BGreen Project. The scope of this project is explored in her book (Routledge, 2019), Participatory Networks and the Environment: The BGreen Project in the US and Bangladesh. 

​

Fadia received her Bachelor of Arts Degree from Hampshire College and her Doctorate and Masters Degree from the Department of Communication at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
 
Fadia has conducted a wide range of environmental action projects with multiple organizational partners from around the world--such as action workshops, trainings, public access television shows, conferences, seminars, community projects, and deliberations in Bangladesh and the United States.

​

Fadia is also in the process of creating an inclusive, green makerspace in Dhaka, Bangladesh to provide sustainable, green platforms for the creation of green artisanal products for local equity focused makers in Dhaka.

​

Fadia is working on her new book (Routledge, 2021) in the Routledge Sustainability and Business Series called Millennials, Generation Z and the Fair Trade Revolution in the United States. This project is committed to creating an inclusive model of trade that is based on the principles of sustainability, accountability, ethics, inclusion, social justice and livelihood generation.

Fadia’s social justice work continues to evolve. She is invested in creating intersections between environmental justice and the #BlackLivesMatter movement, as the discussion is incomplete without an equity, wellness and racial justice lens. All her workshops, writing, and action projects are consciously tackling a combination of these topics. Fadia’s work is committed to bringing forth BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) perspectives on social justice issues.
