Mistra Geopolitics will participate in two seminars organised in collaboration with the Swedish foundation for strategic environmental research, Mistra and the Haga Initiative during the Swedish political week Almedalsveckan in Visby, Gotland.
Mistra Geopolitics Co-Director Henrik Carlsen will contribute with his expertise in two distinguished panel discussions. Both held on the 4th of July: Backlash on the climate issue – how can politics improve on foresight and Climate, security and resources – how do we handle several crises at the same time?
We now clearly see that geopolitical considerations and perspectives are intertwined with environmental and climate change. These developments challenge conventional thinking, and therefore science and policy – and business – need to work closer together to better navigate an uncertain future, said Henrik Carlsen.
Backlash on the climate issue – how can politics improve on foresight? 4 July, 10:00 – 11:00 AM Henrik Carlsen, Deputy Programme Director of Mistra Geopolitics, will open this event including a prominent panel with Anders Wijkman, representatives from the Swedish business sector and Swedish politicians. Hagainitiativet and Mistra Geopolitics are proud to present the panelists:
This dialogue will take place at Teaterskeppet in Visby, Gotland. Organizers are the Haga Initiative and Mistra Geopolitics. |
Climate, security and resources – how do we handle several crises at the same time? 4 July, 15.45-16.30 PM Henrik Carlsen, Deputy Programme Director of Mistra Geopolitics, will be discussing how to reduce dependency on fossil fuels in Sweden, and the geopolitical challenges of this transition with a specific focus on Russia. Mistra and Mistra Geopolitics are proud to present the panellist:
This event will take place at S:t Hansgatan 11, Gamla riksbanken in Visby. Organizers are Mistra and Mistra Geopolitics. |
