The Anthropocene is a widely used term that designates the most recent epoch in Earth's history: an epoch in which humans have radically altered (and disrupted) the climate and ecosystems of the planet.
The annual Welcome to the Anthropocene lecture series invites scholars and researchers across the humanities, social and natural sciences to explore how their disciplines are responding—both to the concept of the Anthropocene, and to the planetary crisis that it designates.
For the 2024 Anthropocene Lecture Series we've invited leading international scholars.
2024 Convenors and organizers: Sara Asu Schroer and Anna-Katharina Laboissiere. Details for the remaining lectures will be published shortly.
How to attend
The 2024 lecture series are free and open to the public. You can either attend in person at the University of Oslo or on Zoom. Register in advance to join. You will find the registration link for each lecture on the event website, links below. The fourth lecture will be posted below shortly.
