Workshop on the occasion of Climate Week 2019: Climate Justice, Technoecologies and Alternative Energy Futures

Monday, 23-Sep-2019
Workshop: Climate Justice, Technoecologies and Alternative Energy Futures
AEJI recommendation
Climate Strike 20-27 September 2019

Climate Justice, Technoecologies and Alternative Energy Futures:
A Workshop with Sheena Wilson (University of Alberta)
23-24 September 2019
 

AEJI will partcipate next week on Climate Justice workshop to be held on  Czech Academy of Science and Charles University in Prague, in frame of the climate week in Czech and Global Climate Strike. Please see below the workshop introduction and the main themes . 

The workshop will be held within and as part of the Week for Climate (20-27 September 2019) organised in Prague and Brno which includes the global student strike for climate and a host of public events and protests.

This workshop is an invitation to activists, artists and scholars to come together and think together over two days about alternative ways of becoming-in-common in times of climate crisis. Climate justice is the pressing issue around which so many others will be organized. The frequency of dramatic weather events, floods, droughts and wildfires, and the mobilisations being organised around the world make clear that the time for political action and systemic change is now. Globally, Strikes for Climate bring matters of rapid environmental degradation, species extinction and global warming into critical visibility. They also prompt renewed reflection on what activists, artists and researchers in the (social) sciences and humanities concerned with questions of ecological and technical changes, feminist and environmental activism, anti-racism, disability and just energy transitions can contribute to developing critical practices and infrastructures at multiple scales.

Join us this September 23-24th, 2019, in Prague to share our research/art and think and create collaborative actions organized around these and other thematic foci:

  *   What are ecological, climate and energy related alternatives to technological fixes that rest on a nature-culture, or ecology-technology divide and locate the capacity to act once again solely with the (hu)Man?
  *   What unexpected solidarities and critical infrastructures come into view between our projects when alternative energy, permaculture or anti-coal activisms engender concerns with climate justice, gender inequalities and racism, and vice versa?
  *   What conceptual and methodological tools, and modes of mobilisation are working and why?
  *   How can we open to the ‘unimaginable’ and embrace uncertainty and indeterminacy?
  *   And, finally, when scientific research and modelling are not catalysing change, how might we mobilize languages, imagery, performance, to provoke and inspire – to make our analyses more widely available without losing nuance?
The keynote address at the workshop will be given by Sheena Wilson, coordinator of the Just Powers Project  at the University of Alberta in Canada. 

The workshop is jointly organised by Dagmar Lorenz-Meyer, Arnošt Novák (Faculty of Humanities, Charles University in Prague), Marta Kolařová (Czech Academy of Sciences) and Sheena Wilson (University of Alberta, Canada).
