We look forward to seeing you at the first event in the RMIT Centre for Urban Research’s (CUR) bi-monthly Justice in the City seminar series.
Seminar 1: Urban climate change – resistance and action
What is the climate-just city? How do the practices and stories of climate justice connect people with other elements of the natural world? How does the notion of a ‘climate just’ city challenge, complement, or replace current rights and privileges? Who dominates, who benefits and who gets left behind?
