Covering five days from 11 to 15 July, the event will open with a look at the state of the global energy transition, governance and challenges, and the need for socially just transformation process. The programme will then narrow its scope to address the potential of the energy transition to empower people, investigating citizen-driven climate litigation and the importance of locally produced green energy. And on the last day we will focus on sector coupling and sustainable mobility and conclude a co-creative workshop that proposes a roadmap to a sustainable energy future.
Applications:
The IKEM Academy adopts an interdisciplinary perspective that examines the social, policy, technological, regulatory and economic aspects of major issues and admits a limited number of participants with relevant academic and professional experience in the field, ensuring rich and insightful exchanges.
Spaces are limited, so we encourage early applications.
