Adaptation: Combining Old and New kNowledge to Enable Conscious Transformation to Sustainability

The objective of AdaptationCONNECTS is to develop new understandings of whether and how different types of transformations can contribute to successful adaptation to climate change.

Responding effectively to climate change requires an understanding of what shapes people's sense of responsibility towards the future, and how individual and collective agency may transform into political engagement and ecological citizenship. This project investigates such human dimensions of climate change by focusing on the voices of young people in Norway.
