Cameron Harrington is an Assistant Professor of International Relations at the School of Government and International Affairs, Durham University. He is a researcher and analyst of global environmental politics. In particular, he draws from international relations, political philosophy, criminology, and human geography and focuses on the theory and practice of environmental security, particularly water conflict and cooperation in the Anthropocene. His book, Security in the Anthropocene: Reflections on Safety and Care, co-written with Clifford Shearing, was published by Transcript-Verlag in 2017.

Franziskus von Lucke is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Political Science at the University of Tübingen. His research focuses on international relations, critical security studies, ontological (in)security, European studies, and theories of climate (in)justice. He has worked extensively on securitization theory with a particular focus on the entanglement of securitizing moves and political power, as well as on the securitization of climate change in different national settings. He has also looked at the European Union and has explored whether and how the EU has contributed to global climate (in)justice and how narratives of ontological (in)security connect to different forms of solidarity in Europe. Besides appearing in Geopolitics, the Journal of International Relations and Development, Political Geography and in the Zeitschrift für Internationale Beziehungen (ZIB), two of his books deal with the linkages between climate change and security: The Securitisation of Climate Change and the Governmentalisation of Security (Palgrave, 2020), and The Securitisation of Climate Change: Actors, Processes and Consequences (Routledge, 2016, together with Thomas Diez and Zehra Wellmann).

Adrien Estève is a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for International Studies (CERI-CNRS- Sciences Po Paris) and a resident at the Institute for Strategic Research (IRSEM). His research focuses on the implications of security and defence actors in defence policies, on the emergence of international forums and networks on climate security, and on the evolution of forms of conflict (lawfare). He oversees the research seminar "Environment and International Relations" at CERI. He was also a visiting scholar at Columbia University for the academic year 2017-2018 and again in April 2019. His research studies the involvement of military actors in climate change governance, and his latest article focuses more specifically on the French armed forces.
