CALL FOR SPEAKERS

Learning Lab Series on Critical Climate Justice 

The Critical Policy Lab is excited to announce an open call for speakers for our Learning Lab Series on Critical Climate Justice. As we face the unequal geographical distribution of climate change effects and the disproportionate responsibilities and profits, it is crucial to address the power dynamics that hinder a fair and equitable system for change.

The learning lab series seeks to create collaborative movements that fight for climate justice within and outside of institutions. We recognize the urgent need for institutional change in decision-making, policymaking, and social impact approaches. We will be organising a series of 4 webinars with experts, practitioners, researchers speaking and co-creative sessions to delve into the scope and meaning of ‘critical climate justice.’  We are looking for speakers to cover topics focussing on:

  • Social, racial, and environmental justice

  • Indigenous climate action

  • Pluralism and alternative economic models

  • Decolonization and climate action

  • Participatory and feminist approaches for community resilience

  • Intersectionality in climate justice

If you are a practitioner, researcher, or advocate with expertise in these areas, we invite you to share your insights and experiences. Submit your proposal to contribute to this critical dialogue and help us drive towards a just and sustainable future. 

The following sessions will take place on these dates:

September 26 | 16:00-17:30 (CEST): #1 SOCIAL JUSTICE: Decolonizing Climate: Reimagining Environmental Justice and Confronting Imperial Legacies

October 17 | 16:00-17:30 (CEST): #2 JUST TRANSITION: Climate Justice and Intersectionality: Including multiple identities and systems of power into the  climate action dialogue

November 7 | 16:00-17:30 (CEST): #3 COMMUNITY: Community Driven Climate Action: An empowering approach to a just climate transition  

November 28 | 16:00-17:30 (CEST): #4 Post-COP Reflections:  A way forward that needs radical change to climate action and justice

Compensation is EUR 100 for an input of max 30-45 minutes.
