Subject: Stewardship for Planet Earth: Sustainable Resources & Governance ­ Evidence, Challenges & Solutions – Call for Papers
Climate change, unprecedented urbanisation, increasingly transnational flows of people, capital and materials are profoundly challenging a sustainable management of resources. Stewardship is a way of responding to these challenges by invoking an ethics of responsible planning and management.  On 6 & 7 November 2014, the UCL Institute for Sustainable Resources (UCL ISR) & UCL Grand Challenge of Intercultural Interaction (GCII) will be hosting a
two day conference that will seek to explore the concept of stewardship for planet earth from a multitude perspectives.

We now invite applications from academic colleagues and early career researchers interested in presenting their research at the symposium event. Interested parties are invited to submit an abstract of up to 250 words outlining the research they wish to present, under the following themes:
  1. Challenges to Stewardship & Resource Use
  2. Local approaches to stewardship: Cultures of ownership, conflicts, and cooperation
  3. Emerging new forms of Governing Stewardship
Deadline 30 June 2014. More information and how to apply
