Monique Carneiro Assunção is a PhD candidate in Geography and Planning at Â鶹¹ÙÍø. Her research examines how public finance, infrastructure investment, and water privatization shape racial and regional inequalities in Brazil. Her interests include racial capitalism, environmental justice, and the relationship between the state and uneven development. Her teaching brings these interests into conversation with Black feminist scholarship and questions of race, gender, and development. In Winter 2027, she will teach BLCK/GNDS 280: Black Feminist Thought: Race, Gender & Development.
