Sustainability, as defined in the UN 2030 Agenda, is treated as a global concern and aims to drive global change. However, the concepts, notions and norms underlying sustainability are not understood and shared in the same way in societies and communities around the world.<\/p>

We are pleased to welcome<\/p>

Prof. Dr. Martin Odei Ajei<\/strong>, Department of Philosophy and Classics, University of Ghana<\/a>, who will give a lecture on and discuss<\/p>

\u201cConceptual barriers in the current global sustainability discourse. Perspectives from African philosophy\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0with\u00a0<\/p>

Prof. Dr. Kristina Gro\u00dfmann,<\/a>\u00a0Prof. Dr. Detlef M\u00fcller-Mahn<\/a>
and the audience<\/p>

on October 21, 4.00-5.30 pm <\/strong>on Zoom<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>

The spoken language during this event is English<\/strong>.<\/p>

Since the publication of\u00a0Our Common Future<\/em>, its idea that the \u2018triple bottom line\u2019 can cohere harmoniously to yield progressive rates of GDP growth, and a sustainable stock and welfare of the resources of Earth\u2019s ecosystems has been rigorously challenged. These challenges have triggered theoretical refinements of the assumptions and conclusions of\u00a0Our Common Future<\/em>\u00a0and strategies for the achievement of sustainability. My talk wonders whether the dominant traits of such refinements and strategies have succeeded in discarding the burdens of the triple bottom line. I argue that they hardly have, and propose some African normative perspectives as viable basis for further refinement of the conceptual toolkits of sustainability into a notion that has broader global resonance and uptake. \u00a0<\/p>

Key themes of the presentation are then taken up by the discussants Prof. Dr. Kristina Gro\u00dfmann (Anthropology of Southeast Asia<\/a>) and Prof. Dr. Detlef M\u00fcller-Mahn (Development Geography<\/a>). The audience is also encouraged to ask questions as well as to bring in thoughts and reflections.<\/p>

Registration closes on October 21, 2.45pm. <\/strong>You will receive the link to participate at 3pm on the day of the event.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
