Title |
Polycrisis in the anthropocene: Barriers and leverage points for global sustainability |
Description |
This course aims to equip students with a critical understanding of sustainable development in the context of the prevailing polycrisis - a term that encapsulates the multiplicity and interconnectedness of contemporary crises. By dissecting the concept of polycrisis, students will delve into the myriad crises that act as barriers to sustainability, exploring their root causes and interrelationships. The course emphasises the identification of these crises and problem-oriented analysis to uncover potential leverage points for transformative action. Throughout, a strong emphasis is placed on understanding the complex web of influences and interdependencies among these crises, fostering a nuanced awareness that is critical for effective intervention in sustainability transformations. |
