Join us for a dynamic exploration of the role of chemistry in shaping a sustainable future within the framework of a "doughnut economy." This groundbreaking event aims to unite chemists interested in placing themselves within system thinking alongside individuals from all backgrounds interested in collaborating with chemists to drive positive change.
Our mission is to engage chemists alongside other scientists, policy advisors, community and activists alike in a thought-provoking discussion on meeting societal needs while respecting Earth's ecological boundaries. Through expert provocations and interactive workshops, we will delve into innovative strategies and solutions for creating a more sustainable world.
Whether you're a chemist eager to contribute to the doughnut economy or someone seeking to collaborate with chemists in addressing global challenges, this event offers a unique opportunity to connect, learn, and collaborate towards a shared vision of sustainability.
Due to the nature of the event, the workshop section will run in person (up to 40 participants) but the presentation and final results will be broadcasted.
Workshop info
We are excited to invite you to join our workshop on environmental and social justice, where diverse perspectives will guide our discussions. The workshop is divided into three sessions, each designed to foster collaboration and deep exploration of key challenges in the field.
Session 1: Speaker Provocations
We will begin with a series of provocations from our speakers:
鈥� Alison Grieve
鈥� Tanya Sheridan
鈥� Philippe Cullet
鈥� Maria Pontes
Purpose: To set the stage for our discussion on environmental and social justice, providing an opportunity for each speaker to share their unique perspectives. This will help frame the day鈥檚 discussions, ensuring we approach the topic from multiple angles.
Each provocation will be 10-15 minutes each, followed by audience questions and interaction. We want this to be a space for people to ask about the speakers鈥� experiences, and share their own.
Session 2: Group Brainstorming
In this session, we鈥檒l break into smaller groups to brainstorm around key issues:
鈥� Goals, challenges, and learning: Each group will identify the goals they want to achieve, the obstacles they鈥檝e encountered, and areas they鈥檇 like to explore.
鈥� Problem selection: By the end of the session, each group will select a specific problem to focus on in the next stage.
Session 3: Problem-Solving Workshop
After lunch, we鈥檒l return to build on the ideas developed in the group session.
鈥� Collaborative problem-solving: Each group will reflect on their chosen problem, mapping out resources, identifying gaps in knowledge, and considering the challenges ahead. Using the collective wisdom in the room, we鈥檒l work towards creating strategies to overcome these hurdles.
While we won鈥檛 necessarily have a final "product" like in design-thinking workshops, we aim for each group to leave with:
鈥� A clearer understanding of how to approach the issues they face in environmental justice.
鈥� A vision of potential collaborations and synergies.
鈥� A framework for future work and possible partnerships.
