Centre for Space, Place and Society

The Annual Conference of LANDac and the Fair Transitions Platform of Utrecht University is coming up. LANDac, the Netherlands Land Academy, is a partnership between Dutch organisations and their Southern partners working on land governance for equitable and sustainable development. The LANDac network brings together actors, conducts research, and distributes information, focusing on new pressures and competing claims on land and natural resources.

This year’s conference asks what it takes to deepen social justice in a context of increasing pressures on resources in the context of the climate and energy transitions. They take a more experimental approach, concluding the three day event with a summit. The deadline for proposing sessions is approaching. This is your opportunity to meet many people from a range of backgrounds concerned with who is loosing out in the push for renewable energy and carbon offsetting and what can be done. It is also your opportunity to discuss what more-than-human perspectives have to offer. The file attached has the details. If you want to bounce an idea for a session at Gemma van der Haar, or want to contribute in another way, do reach out to her directly (Gemma.vanderHaar@wur.nl).
