Summary 內容: | We are in the middle of a global pandemic. We are also in the middle of the climate crisis, with mass coral reefs bleaching, the Australian Bushfires and the locusts in East Africa. How has COVID-19 exposed the same systemic inequalities which also underpin the climate crisis? More importantly, what are we learning from how the world is responding to COVID-19 so that we can combat the climate crisis at the same time? As author Naomi Klein recently said in a speech, “We cannot go ‘back to normal’. Because ‘normal’ is a crisis.” Student Hosts: Ng Yan Ping Sammie from Singapore (BA(UrbanStud Year 3) Ella Cornelia Forsberg from Norway (BA(ArchStud) Year 3) Date: 23/4/2020 (Thu) Time: 16:30 – 18:00 (HK Time) Venue: To be held virtually via Zoom Language: English Registration: https://hkuems1.hku.hk/hkuems/ec_hdetail.aspx?ueid=69552 The URL of the Zoom meeting will be sent to the registrants prior to the event. |
