Rose Ukeci Uwodha is a PhD candidate in sociology and anthropology at the University of Mons (Belgium). Her research focuses on political ecology, extractivism, and community resistance in gold-mining territories in the Ituri and Haut-Uele regions of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and qualitative methods, she examines vernacular knowledge, local imaginaries, and power relations in conflict-affected settings. Her work engages decolonial perspectives and explores the intersections between mining, governance, and everyday survival in eastern DRC.
