The Bath Centre for Earth System Governance (BCESG) is a pioneering hub for research on environmental governance and sustainability transitions, working towards a just and sustainable planet.
Our seminar series gives researchers across and beyond the University of Bath opportunities to share their latest work on environmental governance and sustainable development. We meet fortnightly during the teaching semester, and we welcome speakers across all career stages, especially early career researchers.
Upcoming seminars
Our seminars are free to attend. You don't need to book your place. Please arrive 5 to 10 minutes before the scheduled start time.
We will add details about upcoming seminars as they are arranged. Please check regularly for updates.
