Transformations towards sustainability? Novel perspectives from Social Ecology.


Vor dem Hintergrund von Klimawandel, dem Überbeanspruchung von natürlichen Ressourcen und dem Verlust natürlicher Lebensräume stehen wir vor kritischen Herausforderungen. Gesellschaften werden wichtige Transformationen durchlaufen müssen, um nachhaltiger zu werden. In einer Online-Vortragsreihe präsentieren junge PhD Student*innen unseres Instituts für Soziale Ökologie neueste Erkenntnisse aus der Sozialen Ökologie. Sie zeigen die Wechselwirkung zwischen Natur und Gesellschaft auf. Sie präsentieren Überlegungen und Lösungsansätze, wie dieses Wissen zu einer nachhaltigeren Gesellschaft führt.
