14:30 – 17:30 I Parallel Session I    CCCA Workshop for Early Career Researchers "Pathways Towards Sustainability - Technology and Economy of the Future" I Venue: TU Wien Sitzungszimmer AD EG 19, Hauptgebäude, EG, Karlsplatz 13, 1040 Wien

back to overview

How do we want to live in a sustainable future? Who or what even is this "we"? Can technology and innovation save us? And what actually comes after the green transition? 

In the CCCA Early Career Research working group workshop at the Austrian Klimatag 2024, we'll be approaching these universal questions about the climate crisis from a wide range of perspectives. Together, we want to create visions for a good future. We want to map out the pathways towards it and negotiate potential conflicts of interest. To do this, we'll be building bridges between technological and societal innovation, between concepts of ethics and progress. How can we, as researchers and citizens, contribute to a just transition? Take the first step with us! Join the discussion with experts from the fields of technology, technology assessment and technology ethics, as well as social and political research and economic transformation. We invite you to an interdisciplinary exchange about the opportunities and challenges of the future - be part of it!

Target audience: PreDocs 
Participants: max. 35, first-come-first-served basis
