Talks

Integral Ecology and Higher Education

May 24, 2023

Everyone is welcome to listen to this talk (delivered in Spanish)

The Laudato Si’ Research Institute (LSRI) is located at Campion Hall, a Permanent Private Hall of Oxford University. It has a global reach, providing a transdisciplinary approach to important socio-ecological issues which are often overlooked by policymakers.

This week, the Institute’s Assistant Director of Policy and Practice, Dr. Carlos Zepeda will be delivering a talk at Mexico’s most prominent Jesuit university, Universidad Iberoamericana, on the important subject of Integral Ecology and its link to Higher Education.

In this talk, Dr Zepeda will address the role universities can play in challenging socio-environmental injustice and how communities in the Global South can work together to tackle the threat posed by climate change and political short-termism.

Dr Zepeda's talk will be given in Spanish. You can watch it live here https://bit.ly/3LT4Nl2 from 5-6pm UK time.
