Description

Achieving Climate Justice: The Agenda for Action

Glasgow Caledonian University's Centre for Climate Justice is working with the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and the Mary Robinson Foundation - Climate Justice to run a series of seminars on Climate Justice exploring the nature of the issues, the existing evidence base and the agenda for action.

Why?

The specific purpose of these dialogues will be to establish and share a credible body of evidence - knowledge, information and insight on Climate Justice issues at both a UK and international level. The need for this evidence base is more critical now than ever to underpin Climate Justice as more than just ‘a movement’ and ‘activism’, especially in the run up to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change negotiations in 2015 and in considering implications for future UK policy and action. The intended outcome of this series of dialogues is to firmly establish the evidence base which could be used to contribute and influence key stakeholders in this area and in the development of a road map for moving forward.

The third and final dialogue will focus on Achieving Climate Justice. What does a climate just future look like and feel like and how might we get there?
