Academic seminars provide a structured forum for researchers, students, and practitioners to share ongoing research, exchange ideas, and engage in critical discussion. By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and showcasing emerging work, we help build intellectual communities, spark collaboration, and advance the collective understanding of key issues in our field.
Critical Conversations Series
The Critical Conversations series provides a space for critical and heterodox ideas about climate change and planetary health to develop and be tested. By questioning assumptions about what changes are necessary or possible, by discussing how current practices are held in place, and by exploring how learners, educators, researchers, and practitioners might respond to climate crisis, this series fosters an environment for respectful, inclusive, and critical academic exchange.
Climate & Health Seminar Series
Climate & Health seminars are developed in collaboration with centres of excellence across the University of Toronto and TAHSN. Spanning a variety of topics and featuring both international and local experts, this series explores relevant and topical issues at the intersections of climate and health.
