On Wednesday 16th October, 7.30pm we have a public meeting/discussion as part of the Edinburgh World Justice Festival
We plan to explore what is meant by justice transition and reflect on the need to develop the definition. There’ll also be some film clips on struggles for just transition around the world.
We’ll finish with discussion on making just transition core to the politics and practice of the movement. Who we need to reach, how we can reach them and what are the priorities for action.
Climate Justice is the theme of this year’s Edinburgh World Justice Festival held at various venues in Edinburgh between 28th September and 19th October. Among the speakers at the conference held on Saturday 12th October was Asad Rehman from War in Want. The video is just over 20 minutes and is highly recommended.
We are really pleased that Simon Pirani will be speaking at the Scot.E3 conference on 16th November. Simon is the author of ‘Burning Up: A Global History of Fossil Fuel Consumption’ (Pluto, 2018). Here’s a video of him speaking about the book:
The Edinburgh World Justice Festival (EWJF) began on 28th September and runs through to the 19th October. This year the theme of the festival is Climate Justice. ScotE3 is contributing a meeting on Wednesday 16th October when we’ll be looking at climate activism around the world and how we can make the idea of a just transition real for working class communities and organisations. Obviously we hope you’ll come to the meeting on the 16th but do check out the nineteen other events including the conference on 12th October and the the Bookfair on 19th October.
