Open registration for the International Conference 2020 on Low-Carbon Lifestyle Changes

The International Conference 2020 on Low-Carbon Lifestyle Changes has opened its registration for participation and it can be done until next March 15th through the official website, where you can also find the preliminary program.

The International Conference 2020 on Low-Carbon Lifestyle Changes aims at exploring the role of changing lifestyles in climate change mitigation. The conference will take place in Barcelona on May 6-8 2020.

Decreasing energy demand and promoting more sustainable consumption patterns are regarded as key elements for limiting global warming to 1.5 °C. However, the study of the lifestyle changes required for such purpose has received limited academic attention to date. As is tradition at ICTA-UAB, this conference will bring together researchers from different academic disciplines to address and discuss the impacts, drivers and policies of low-carbon lifestyles.

The conference will feature three keynote speeches from Angela Druckman, Lorraine Whitmarsh, and Céline Guivarch, as well as a public debate in Barcelona on May 7, and remote participation will be also possible.

The organizing team encourages contributions from any field of knowledge that addresses the topic of lifestyle changes along one of the three conference themes (Drivers, Impacts, and Policies). The registration period will be open between 15/02/2020 and 15/03/2020.
