🌱 The fourth CreaTures and Friends seminar will take place on

February 9th, 2021, 12:00-13:00 CET 🌱

Giuseppe Feola is an Associate Professor of Social Change for Sustainability in the Copernicus Institute of Sustainable Development at Utrecht University, the Netherlands. Giuseppe’s paper ā€œSocietal transformation in response to global environmental change: A review of emerging conceptsā€, maps the conceptual diversity of the term ā€˜transformation’ and tries to establish a structure to the dialogue on societal transformation in response to environmental change. In this session, Giuseppe will introduce his research on understanding transformation and engage in a dialogue with some of the CreaTures researchers on the ways transformation is approached from the lens of creative practice. The session will be moderated by Ann Light, Professor of Design & Creative Technology  at the University of Sussex.
