Climate, environment, and sustainability at STK
STK will enhance and develop its interdisciplinary competence in the face of societal challenges linked to environmental and climate change, ethics, health and welfare issues, polarization and democracy building, knowledge production, migration and war, dominance, exclusion, and inequality. Gender plays a central role in all these challenges.
