Symposium ‘Bracing for impact: Junior scholars on the Anthropocene’
On 27 June 2025, the Network for Environmental Humanities (NEH) celebrates the pioneering, socially engaged research being conducted by our junior scholars in the humanities with the Symposium ‘Bracing for imapct: Junior scholars on the Anthropocene’. The topics relate various issues related to the Anthropocene – the overlapping climate, environmental and biodiversity crises.
The NEH has invited Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Research Master’s students in a broad range of disciplines to reflect on their role as researchers and change makers – from Literary Studies to Philosophy, Gender Studies and Human Geography.,p>
For three thematic panels, presenters have been challenged to develop a five-minute pitch, explaining their research and the impact they seek to have. These pitches will be followed by critical questions and supportive feedback from the expert panellists and a Q&A with the audience.
The event is freely accessible to those interested.
