More about this course
  • This course will contribute to doing so by focusing on the historical roots and multiple layers of meaning of sustainable development, and by exploring questions such as: ?What is the historical background of the current Sustainable Development Goals??, ?Which imaginaries about relations between individual and collective tend to promote and prevent sustainable solutions??, ?How can ideas about humans and nature affect global development??, And ?how do we as humans react on inconstant notions of time and change?
  • We hope that you will join us in the course and qualify your participation in current discussions about how to achieve common sustainable development in a divided world
