Schedule European Summer University 2022

What transformative strategies are there and how do they relate to each other? What elements are missing from the movement and which capacities have not been mobilised? How can we get an overview of the big picture? And how can we plan for systemic change? An organisational structure and strategy will be proposed that aims at systemic change in order to curb climate change before it’s too late.

This session is about connecting two dots: capitalism is the main cause of the climate and social crisis and the climate emergency, meaning action must be taken now. The logical conclusion is that we need to dismantle capitalism in the short term.

Speakers will challenge the lack of ambition in social movements and deconstruct theories of change based on pressure on governments. They will make proposals that go beyond campaigning. They will propose a movement-level organisational structure and grand strategy aimed at systemic change before it’s too late?

What transformative strategies exist and how do they relate to each other? What elements are missing from the movement? Which capacities of the movement have not been mobilised? How can we get an overview of the big picture? And how can we plan for systemic change?
