Water, sustainability and eco-social justice: challenges and perspectives for effective research and policies

EUCOR Chair in Water & Sustainability, UNESCO Chair in River Culture and Heritage

In this lecture, Karl Matthias Wantzen, holder of the EUCOR Chair in Water & Sustainability and the UNESCO Chair in River Culture and Heritage, examines the interconnections between water, sustainability, and eco-social justice. Drawing on his expertise in ecology and hydrosystem management, he highlights the challenges of restoring watersheds and urban socio-ecosystems in the context of climate and social crises.

This conference provides an opportunity to explore research and action pathways to rethink our relationship with water, transcend disciplinary boundaries, and design more effective policies in response to ecological emergencies.
