The European Network of Political Ecology (ENTITLE) organizes its International Conference UNDISCIPLINED ENVIRONMENTS that will be held from 20^th to 24^th March 2016 at the Students’ Union House (Kåren) of KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm. Co-organized by the Center for Social Studies of the University of Coimbra (Portugal) and KTH Environmental Humanities Laboratory, with support from KTH’s Sustainability Office, this is the first large international conference to be held in Europe in the emerging field of Political Ecology.

With 90 parallel sessions (panels, roundtables and experimental sessions), and a number of artistic interventions (films, photo and visual art exhibits, poetry and drama performances), the conference is built upon a transdisciplinary methodology of peer-to-peer exchanges across different forms of knowledge, including a significant participation of Indigenous speakers.
