Climate Controversies in SEA: An Overview
Channel: Stiftung Asienhaus
Date: 11/11/2020

In this first part of the lecture series Professor Philip Hirsch, prof. em. University of Sydney, gives an overview of the topic in the region, including the discursive treatment of climate change and the entanglement with other issues.
Organised by the Department of Southeast Asian Studies at the University of Bonn in cooperation with Fridays for Future (HSG Bonn and FFF Cologne), the Stiftung Asienhaus and the Philippinenbüro, the series seeks to examine the effects of climate change on the region, debate the socio-ecological transformation of important sectors (such as energy, agriculture or mobility) and discuss the challenges and strategies of the climate justice movement.
