About the series

Learn more about this event series

Over recent years we have experienced a period of significant global change. In addition to the acceleration of climate change, extreme weather events and environmental degradation, we are living through a global pandemic, a war in Europe, rising geo-political tensions, high inflation and a cost of living crisis, energy supply and trade disruption, and widespread food insecurity.

These multiple and overlapping crises of our time mean we are now in the midst of a global polycrisis. These interconnected challenges aren't experienced by countries in isolation. Rather, they are problems of the global commons, and they cannot be solved by one country or a group of countries.

How do we navigate through these turbulent times, and chart courses out of the crises we face? Join us for our new lecture series as we welcome leading experts and voices to explore what lessons we have learnt from these disruptions and how we can understand and navigate the global polycrisis.
