Social and ecological crises related to the Covid-19 pandemic and a changing climate have heightened the awareness of the entangled fates of humans and non-humans, from the individual body to the planetary scale. This awareness demands that we examine and question how humans coexist not only with nature but also with other species.
This workshop will bring together natural and social scientist as well as policy makers to explore specific climate risks facing the Nordic region, to develop a future, interdisciplinary research agenda, and to create a science-policy bridge for Nordic climate tipping points.
We are pleased to welcome you to the next event in the Cities & Society seminar series: Breakthrough Communities: Sustainability and Justice in the Next American Metropolis, by Dr. Paloma Pavel.

This conference marks the end of the project "What is a Good Policy? Political Morality, Feasibility, and Democracy" (GOODPOL), hosted and funded by the Center for Advanced Study at the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters.
In a world characterized by rapid and serious climate change and loss of biodiversity it is time to challenge established truths and assumptions and take the time to explore more deeply the tasks we are faced with. How can we make changes that both answer the problems we are faced with and creates better societies and lives for everyone?
We invite you to join us for the launch of Karen O'Brien's new book You Matter More Than You Think.
In this seminar, Céline Bessière (Paris Dauphine University) and Sibylle Gollac (CNRS) will present their work on wealth accumulation, class and gender. Their recent book, "Le Genre du capital: Comment la famille reproduit les inégalités" (Paris, La Découverte, 2020), draws on family monographs extending 15 years of ethnography. In combination with statistical material, this impressive work brings attention to the ways in which families perpetuate wealth inequalities.
