RESOURCE SESSION

RESOURCE sessions gather researchers’ insights from multidisciplinary perspectives of sustainability transitions. To achieve the long-term goals for a sustainable future and carbon neutrality, the core systems of our societies as well as our governance approaches and business practices will change rapidly and dramatically. In this context, sustainability transitions are processes through which we transform from a resource-intensive to a resource-wise carbon-neutral society. Circular economy, energy and raw materials represent examples of the different paths where these transformations take place.  

RESOURCE sessions invite researchers and professionals in different fields of research to submit abstracts on topics that are relevant to the overarching themes mentioned above.  Young scholars and professionals as well as doctoral students are encouraged to submit an abstract.

The conference aims to join views from disciplines such as economics, business studies, law, environmental policy, geography, history, sociology, and cultural studies. The topics to be discussed are as follows: circular economy, sustainable business, responsible community relations and social sustainability, sustainable raw materials and resources, energy law and governance, energy transition, environmental law, governance, and politics, climate law, governance, and politics.
