Content

As last year, this summer semester will once again see the inter-university lecture series on the climate crisis, for which 3 ECTS credits are also available!

This time's topic: Climate. Crisis. Action. Strategies for a sustainable future.

What political, economic and social strategies for greater climate protection already exist? How can theoretical concepts be put into practice? How effective are different measures and what scope for action do individual actors and groups have?

Following a recap from last year on the intersectional dimensions of the climate crisis, the lecture series is divided into two thematic blocks:
1) Political and economic strategies
2) Social action

Each block is followed by a discussion session in which you can exchange ideas on the topics not only within your own university, but also at the national level.

Speakers from a wide range of academic fields will shed light on the topic from their respective perspectives and contribute their expertise.
