The problems arising from climate change are complex and varied, and it is not that they did not happen before, but that they are now occurring at a speed that barely gives us time to think about how to deal with the growing challenges.

In this session of the Balance-Unbalance Chair on Art and Climate, we will have experts in intergovernmental science-policy on biodiversity and ecosystem services; climate policy advisor and facilitator of multi-stakeholder collaborative, consultative processes; and specialists in providing strategic leadership in legal policy, advisory and litigation services in international law and national security. They will present their perspectives on climate change law and governance, making art in the Anthropocene, and climate and ecocide with and without boundaries, among other relevant subjects.

Visiting Research Fellow with Boston University’s Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future, she is developing the Lunar University “Off-World Humanities” track, has collaborated on “Disciplinarities” with the HKW (Berlin) Anthropocene Campus, and piloted the first internet-mediated Geography MSc targeting developing country environmentalists as a Senior Lecturer at Royal Holloway, University of London. After a decade pioneering GEF-IW:LEARN, the Global Environment Facility’s International Waters knowledge-sharing platform, she serves the Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre as a Technical Advisor on conflict zone climate risk screenings, dengue risk forecasting, anticipatory action and climate resilient social protection.

      TOPIC: My presentation will share the launch of Lunar University - the first human settlement in space. It will be an invitation to explore together how our relationship to boundaries is transformed through the “off-World” perspective - how the moon draws us to imagine - from whence we came to where we are going - and to consider our climate challenge through the universe-al language of the arts, across boundaries of space and time!
