Nitin Bathla
I am a lecturer and postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Architecture, ETH Zürich, where I coordinate the Doctoral Programme at the Institute of Landscape and Urban Studies. Additionally, I lecture on urban studies, political ecology, and sociology and work as part of the transdisciplinary project on agri-urbanisms at the Chair of Sociology. In my research practice, I actively combine academic research with artistic practices of filmmaking, and socially-engaged art. My 2020 film Not Just Roads with Klearjos E. Papanicolaou premiered at several important film festivals across the world and won the Society of Architectural Historians Film Award for 2022.
