The Anthropocene is the name for a proposed geological epoch, but it also marks a series of emergencies and unpredictable events which UCL researchers are working to articulate and address together.
UCL Anthropocene works as a virtual school by assembling projects, people, courses, and events from across the social sciences, arts, humanities, life, environmental, and health sciences to articulate and address the problems that the Anthropocene poses for our collective future.
Emergence | Emergency Event Series
A series of lectures, discussions, seminars, and doctoral workshops.
The Anthropocene points to multiple planetary emergencies. It may also offer emergent ways of addressing them. This UCL200 series on 'Emergence | Emergency' asks the big questions a bicentenary deserves and will offer emerging ways to answer them.
