PLU6114A - Choosing the Transition: June 13-18, 2022

The acceleration of climate disruption, the collapse of biodiversity, the continued pressure on natural resources and the growth of social inequalities are threatening the very habitability of our world. Yet the rising sense of urgency contrasts with the apparent inertia of our societies.

While our future is more uncertain than ever, one thing remains certain: whether we like it or not, we are heading for a profoundly different society in the coming decades. The question is whether this transition to new horizons will be entirely undergone, or at least partially chosen.

We believe that it is still possible and crucial to collectively identify paths towards a desirable, more ecological and more just future. Quebec is full of solutions and committed people. Despite the unpredictability, it is more than time to project ourselves far ahead in order to profoundly change our ways of thinking, working, eating, deciding together and interacting with all living things.

But what does choosing the socio-ecological transition mean in concrete terms? Which actors must be mobilized in this vast project? What key knowledge and skills need to be developed in order to make the transition? This is what this summer school will seek to answer.
