‘Please stop breaking our world.’ — Placard held by a five-year-old on the Fridays for the Future march in Cardiff, 2019
The seventh event in Taliesin’s Everything Change programme will explore what roles law and justice might play in helping us reach a low-carbon, sustainable future. What are the consequences of Ecocide becoming an international crime against humanity? How and where should responsibilities for tackling the climate and ecological crises fall across countries and generations? These are just some of the questions our panel will be addressing in this vital discussion on climate, racial, gender and intergenerational justice. If our laws are a framework for our morals and our principles, then how should they be changing in a world at threat of climate collapse, and how might they provide us with the guidance and powers we need to avert it?
This event will be broadcast live and include a Q&A session where audiences will be able to join in the discussion.
Booking is essential to access this free, online event. Live English-language captioning will be available.
