This will be a hybrid event with the option to participate either in person or via Zoom.

It is now widely recognized that responding to the planetary polycrisis could require what scholars and activists are calling pluriversal knowledge. This is because their epistemologies focus on the balance between humans and nature and are rooted in local ecologies, setting them apart from, and in terms of ‘sustainability’, superior to capitalist systems of production.

 

Join us for a talk with Dr. Madhulika Banerjee on "Balancing the Cognitive and the Material" for more equitable and just responses to the polycrisis.

 

  • Speaker: Dr. Madhulika Banerjee, Professor of Political Science, Delhi University
  • Moderator: Basav Sen, Climate Policy Director, Institute for Policy Studies
