IFG IV “Resources & Sustainability”: MECAM Conference Series Spring Talks, May / June 2022,
From March to June 2022, the fourth Interdisciplinary Fellow Group “Resources and Sustainability” (IFG IV) at MECAM works on the origins and potential effects of a range of economic and social strategies that are currently being explored to create an alternative model of sustainable economic development in North Africa. The IFG investigates how such strategies might lead to positive socio-economic development and help address environmental challenges.
For the MECAM Spring Talks 2022, the IFG IV fellows have invited well-known colleagues as guest speakers to give a public talk on issues close to their own research from a wider perspective, which will be preceded by a non-public seminar for the fellow group. The lectures will be discussed by the fellows or other renowned experts. All talks will be hybrid.
