Communicating Sustainabilities Website Launch

There will be an official launch of the Communicating Sustainabilities website and resources on Thursday 25th of June at 2pm BST (GMT+1).

Communicating Sustainabilities is an intersectoral and international network of academics, practitioners, activists and professionals working together to understand what ‘sustainability’ means to different groups and to promote dialogue across difference. We recognise that there are multiple understandings of ‘sustainability’ and that we cannot plan for environmental, social, cultural or financial sustainability individually, without reference to the interconnections between them. This website is a place to share resources and personal profiles for all those interested in collaborating in this area.

To obtain the Zoom address, please send me a personal message at tom.bartlett@glasgow.ac.uk.

You can preview the website at: https://www.gla.ac.uk/research/az/communicating-sustainabilities/

All the best,

Tom.


"To become counter-hegemonic ... a new commonsense must transcend the 'merely environmental'. ...Far from treating global warming as a trump card that overrides everything else, it must trace that threat to underlying societal dynamics that also drive other strands of the present crisis. Only by addressing all major facets of this crisis, 'environmental' and 'non-environmental', and by disclosing the connections among them, can we begin to build a counter-hegemonic bloc that backs a common project and possesses the political heft to pursue it effectively."

- Nancy Fraser
