At the 14th of February, the new seminar series on concepts will start and CEC Fellows welcomes all members to participate. Åsa Knaggård and colleagues from political science will on this occasion straightening out the concept of Governance as a research perspective for us. We are planning three more seminars during 2019, and if you have suggestions for concepts to discuss please let us know!
Don’t miss out on the Sustainability Week – Transforming our world, April 8-13. In anticipation of Sustainability Week, we are looking for exceptional examples of science communication of sustainability topics. The best will be exhibited at Eden throughout the week.
