For the University of Iceland’s 2026 Hugvísindaþing (Humanities Conference), a double-session featuring the Climate Change and Affect Network introduced new and ongoing research by its members.
An open presentation on the main focus areas of the research project Centring Families in Iceland’s Just Transition was held on 9 October in the newly renovated Saga building at Hagatorg.
This past June, Utsa Mukherjee, Auður Magndís, and Rannveig met with members of the Climate Crisis and Affect at an open meeting. The meeting connected the project Centring Families in Iceland’s Just Transition with others working on climate issues across Iceland.
Scholars at the University of Iceland School of Education, the University of Iceland Research Center in Þingeyjarsveit, and Brunel University London recently received a grant of 50 million ISK from the British Academy to research the role and attitudes of Icelandic families toward climate action.
