Caleb is a PhD student in the Department of Sociology at the University of Cambridge.
His research examines environmental serious board games through the analytical lenses of science and technology studies (STS) and game studies, with a particular focus on their capacities as world-making practices. His doctoral project combines the analysis of environmental serious board games with ethnographic fieldwork in Chile, where he collaborates with scientists and communities to co-design a game grounded in a specific socio-environmental issue. He explores how these processes can function as sites of encounter and negotiation between different worlds.
Caleb holds an MSc in Science, Technology and Society from Universidad Alberto Hurtado and a BA in Sociocultural Anthropology from Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.
