The Uppsala Forum Workshop on Global Climate Change is a workshop series, started in 2009, hosted by the Department of Government and funded by the Uppsala Forum on Democracy, Peace and Justice.
The workshops have provided the opportunity for participants to present concise academic papers and other work-in-progress to facilitate subsequent peer-reviewed publications or grant proposals. They have brought together scholars from a wide range of disciplines (e.g., Political Science, Law, Philosophy, Peace and Conflict Studies, Theology, Environmental Studies), and attracted participants from academic institutions in Uppsala, Stockholm, Lund, Gothenburg, Linköping, Oslo, Nottingham, Warwick, and Oxford.
A special feature of the workshops has been that participants are drawn from various stages of their careers, from doctoral, post-doctoral, and professorial levels. This has not only facilitated discussion but also the career development of many participants.
Another special feature has been the prominent invited guests. Previous invited guests include John Broome (White’s Professor in Moral Philosophy, Corpus Christi College, Oxford University), Simon Caney (Professor in Political Theory, Magdalen College, Oxford University), Bo Kjellén (Senior Fellow, Stockholm Environment Institute, and Former Chief Climate Negotiator for Sweden), Marco Grasso (Senior Lecturer in Economic and Political Geography, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca) and Johan Schaar (Director, Commission of Climate Change and Development).
Workshop conveners have been Edward A. Page (Associate Professor in Political Theory, Politics and International Studies, University of Warwick), Folke Tersman (Professor, Department of Philosophy, Uppsala University), Jörgen Ödalen (Assistant Professor, Department of Government, Uppsala University), Clare Heyward (James Martin Fellow, Oxford Geoengineering Programme, University of Oxford), Aaron Maltais (Assistant Professor, Department of Government, Uppsala University), and Fiona Rotberg (Associate Professor, Department of Government, Uppsala University).
