Political Ecology Reading Group | Final section

How to read and write about the ecological crisis?

December 16, 2024, 10h00

Room 2, CES | Alta

To close the Reading Group's year of activities, we will hold two sessions on December 16: an internal evaluation session with the cycle participants and a panel open to the community.

10:00 am - 12:00 pm: How to read and write about the ecological crisis? A methodological (and life-changing) evaluation of the reading group and celebratory dinner

We will have an internal moment with those who were part of this reading cycle to look at the work from a theoretical-methodological point of view. We will hold a discussion group to evaluate what was done during the last year and to reflect on the contributions that the readings have brought to our research and also to our lives beyond the academic space. We will end the day with a collective dinner for those in Coimbra. Cycle participants will receive information about costs and registration by email.
 

2:00 pm - 4:00 pm: How to read and write about the ecological crisis? Open conversation with authors

To celebrate one year of the Reading Group's activities, we will hold a discussion panel, bringing some of the authors studied and inviting them to reflect on the meanings and possible paths for writing and reading about the climate crisis. At this meeting, which marks the end of the Reading Group's first year, we will have the presence of guests whose texts were discussed during the sessions, highlighting the relevance and celebrating the encounter with their work. The goal is to address what authors have provoked in our senses and actions, what they represent in our academic and professional paths, and as compasses that inspire our life trajectories.
