About the PhD Conference

ALL MY RELATIONS 2; Ecological co-learning, Existential Sustainability, and Transformative Performance Practices

1-3 September 2023, Gylleboverket, Simrishamn

The purpose of this event is to study the possibilities and limitations of performative arrangements to foster individual and collective transformation and aim at a more sustainable life. We seek to find the link between performative practices and ecological sustainability based on a genuine understanding of sensibility, corporality, imagination, being-with and a movement towards an extended ecological self. 

The workshop is addressed to artists, researchers, and pedagogues dealing with ecology, non-human relations, and sustainable futures. The workshop is co-arranged by Malmö Theatre Academy and the Agenda 2030 Graduate School.
