This past June, Utsa Mukherjee, Au\u00f0ur Magnd\u00eds, and Rannveig met with members of the Climate Crisis and Affect at an open meeting. The meeting connected the project Centring Families in Iceland\u2019s Just Transition with others working on climate issues across Iceland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the meeting, the project\u2019s main focus was presented: to understand the role of families in Iceland\u2019s journey toward carbon neutrality by 2040 and to ensure that this transition is just. The research will combine historical analysis of literature and film with data collected from 50 families around the country, using interviews, creative writing, and family photographs to explore attitudes toward sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Climate Crisis and Affect brings together scholars, artists, and educators who research the cultural, emotional, and social dimensions of climate change. Discussions at the meeting covered a wide range of approaches, from climate action education to creative and artistic responses to climate disasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting provided an important platform for connecting with others working in related fields and for exchanging ideas about how research can shape public understanding and inform policy. It also opened up opportunities for collaboration and dissemination of results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The June meeting underscored the importance of building connections across disciplines. By collaborating with the Climate Crisis and Affect network, we aim to situate the project within a broader conversation about just transitions in Iceland.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
