How do we navigate the contested forces of stability and change in a
world shaped by multiple interconnected global challenges? For the authors and
editors of Changing Senses of Place: Navigating Global Challenges, an essential
step is revisiting the concept of sense of place.
You are cordially invited to
the book launch where you
will hear from the editors of the book who will address the vital question of
how to navigate the contested forces of stability and change in a world shaped
by multiple interconnected global challenges. They will make the case that the
concept of sense of place needs to be revisited, given that places and our
experiences of place are changing. For example, through climate and ecological
regime shifts, refugee crises, and post-national territorial claims.
The book launch will be an
opportunity to learn about the latest advances in senses of place scholarship, and
how to design and manage for senses of place in the face of global challenges
that are rapidly changing the world we live in. There will also be time for
audience questions and academic discussion on critical aspects underpinning a
transit towards more complex and plural experiences of senses of place.
