Confronted with the undeniable urgency of the climate crisis, why don’t we act the way we know we should? Why aren’t scientific facts enough? What kinds of stories do we need to tell? What role does justice and generational conflict play? How do different disciplines approach climate change communication and what have they got to offer?
To discuss questions such as these, this lecture series presents contributions from leading experts in fields ranging from human geography, sociology, and philosophy to literary and media studies. Talks and discussions are open to the public. They will be held in German and English and take place online via Zoom. Students attending the lecture as part of the Studium liberale need to complete a written exam at the end of term.
The complete programme for the series as well as the registration address will be available at www.climate-change-literacy.de from early March onwards. |
