Just Transitions Action Launch

Just Transitions Action Launch, Department of Real Estate and Planning, Henley Business School.

Just Transitions Action is a PhD research lab that examines place-based behavioural, socio-cultural, and political factors driving competing claims as well as visions for more sustainable and resilient urban futures. The research of the lab spans several topical areas of relevance to urban policy and governance, exploring both human and non-human relations associated with the social, economic and environmental challenges facing cities globally.

The lab will be launching on July 4 with the aim to discuss how it will move forwards with the aim to co-produce a framework for interdisciplinary research collaboration across the University, and is open to contributions from PhD researchers. The launch will allow participants the opportunity to get involved, meet other PhD research students, and make a lasting contribution to how the lab moves forward. It will also include a guest talk from Professor Tom Oliver, Research Division Leader, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, on knowledge architectures for sustainability transitions.
