CEMUS and the Sigtuna Foundation welcome you to Climate Existence November 1-3, 2010, in Sigtuna Sweden.

What are the existential aspects of the climate crisis? What have our values and visions to do with the current crisis? Who are we as humans in this age of environmental crisis and what is our responsibility? Do we need to change the way we perceive nature and our role in society?

On November 1-3, 2010, Cemus - The Centre for Environment and Development studies as part of CSD - Uppsala Centre for Sustainable Development - along with The Sigtuna Foundation are welcoming you to a conference dealing with the underlying moral, existential and psychological aspects of human and societal responses to climate change. This will be a follow up Conference to a similar successful venture held in Sigtuna in 2008. The conference is going to run for 3 days and during that time we will not only be listening to inspiring keynotes and participating in rewarding workshops but also be listening to poetry, music and enjoying social events.

Confirmed guests so far include: Keynote speakers; author and philosopher David Abram and poet and writer Andri Snaer Magnasson. Also participating - cultural anthropologist Mikael Kurkiala, researchers David Kronlid, Sigurd Bergmann and Petra Hansson as well as many others...
