INTS3001: Global Responses to Climate Change

2027 unit information

Climate change is the greatest international challenge the world faces. This unit examines how the scientific knowledge we have about climate change has been taken seriously in the international domain to develop and implement climate conventions and related policies and protocols. We also explore how this information has been ignored or actively undermined in specific national contexts to inhibit effective responses to the crisis that we face. The unit examines how international organisations, agreements, regulations, and forms of redistributive justice work presently and how they could be improved to deal more urgently with climate change.
