Hanneke has researched the social and environmental harms associated with the production of palm oil in Colombia’s Pacific coast region. From a green criminological perspective on the politics of harm, the aim of this research was to contribute empirically to an awareness of the constructions, practices, and the lived and perceived realities of harm related to palm oil production in this context, and to advance criminological debate around ‘harm’ within criminology. Hanneke has previously worked as Research Associate in the Lancaster Environment Centre of Lancaster University on a project that examined the sociocultural determinants of the attitudes of land-based actors and wider stakeholders towards the use, cultivation, and commercialization of perennial bioenergy crops in the UK, and as a Lecturer in Criminology at Northumbria University (2015-2016).
