"When we stand up, they have to negotiate with us" - South-North North-South proposals from local to global sustainable changes (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Aymara Victoria Llanque Zonta

Inhalt: The course proposes to reflect on participation and contributions for sustainability transformation from the perspective of knowledge generation. We will focus on sustainability from the point through lectures and workshop style methodology; for an understanding of political participation of social movements. We will emphasize in social learning and the adoption of a transdisciplinary approach to the interface between science, policy and practice. The inspiration will be local proposals to global changes, mainly examples of South-North North, and their pragmatic responsible towards sustainability. There are 2 threads under which sessions will be organized in the seminar: 1. Interface of Science, Policy and Practice, resonance with social movements from North and South. 2. Understanding meta topics- transformative, transgressive and transdisciplinary learning.

Sustainability Concepts - in context of planetary boundaries, degrowth and regenerative strategies (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Maren Fokuhl

Inhalt: Sustainability Concepts - in context of planetary boundaries, degrowth and regenerative strategies How can we live a regenerative life on an individual, group, organizational and even (inter-)national level? In times of ecological degeneration, the current systems are in a crisis and existing patterns and paradigms are to be re-assessed and adapted. Old systems are overthought and new facets are brought into the logics of how we structure and organize ourselves as individuals, groups, organizations, nations etc. Following this reflective thought and search for ingenious and holistic approaches to tackle the ecological and multiple interrelated crisis, this course will firstly give you an overview about basic sustainability concepts such as the planetary boundaries. The second part of the course will focus on "how can we get into action?". Introductions into degrowth and environmental activism are given. It also covers innovative and up-to-date approaches such as regenerative entrepreneurship on an organizational level.
