Challenges related to climate, environment and sustainability around the world

ToRS seminar for researchers and students.

Many of ToRS’ regions and research fields are challenged by climate change and threats to environment and sustainability. This can be in the form of air or water pollution, threats to living conditions, or to food production and consumption, waste, or climate driven damages to environments and natural and cultural heritage. Much of this is expressed in social and political conflicts, public protests, artistic productions and interventions, and in local, regional and global politics.

This seminar aims to investigate and compare how challenges related to climate, environment and sustainability influence people and societies around the world.

We invite researchers from all of ToRS’ regions and disciplines to give short presentations on how these challenges impact the regions and fields they are working on.

The seminar is open to all researchers and students at ToRS. Please join us and bring your students! We will finish the day with refreshments and informal chats.
