School leadership in the Anthropocene
22 May 2023, 16:30 – 17:30
The Anthropocene is a geological epoch we are in now, initiated around 200 years ago by the activities of one species – homo sapiens.
In this seminar, the panel will discuss the implications of this for the practice of school leadership. They propose an agential approach that enables children and adults to respond knowledgeably, humanely and practically to multiple global challenges.
The aim for the session is to create a space for discussion about whether school leadership is fit for the urgent challenges faced by all humanity in the Anthropocene.
The presentation will be followed by a Q&A.
