Laura Menatti

Laura Menatti is a researcher with a PhD in aesthetics from the University of Pavia and a second PhD in philosophy of globalisation from the University of the Basque Country.

Her primary research focuses on environmental philosophy, landscape philosophy, and the philosophy of medicine. Through interdisciplinary analysis, she explores social and political dimensions, as well as environmental ethics, with particular emphasis on landscape management in the context of climate change. Her work also encompasses the perception of landscape and the environment from both historical and cognitive science perspectives.

Currently, she aims to bridge environmental philosophy and the philosophy of medicine through the concepts of salutogenesis and adaptivity.

She has been teaching and carrying out her research in different faculties and departments (medicine, architecture, philosophy, science) in Spain, Chile, Italy and France.

In the current debate about climate change and its disruptive effects on the health of people and ecosystems, the reclamation of the ‘right to the environment’ has gained momentum, both in theoretical accounts and in legal documents. Yet, it is useful to make a first distinction between the right to the environment and the right of the environment.
