Due to the escalating climate crisis, the Green Office of the International Psychoanalytic University Berlin (IPU) is organising a series of events on the climate crisis at the interface between psychoanalysis, sociology and economics/politics during the coming winter semester, from the beginning of October to the end of November.
The events will address questions such as:
- What is the current state of science?
- Where do we stand with regard to the so-called tipping points?
- What are ecological limits and where is there potential room for change?
- How do children and young people view the climate crisis – what (unconscious) feelings and fantasies accompany growing up and becoming an adult under these circumstances?
- What impact do protest movements have on social change? And what does working with climate activists look like?
- and many more.
