PA: ENLIGHT Workshop "Archaeologies of Sustainability: Long-term perspectives on food production, infrastructure, innovation and climate change" |
| Description |
The newly founded Thematic Network ENLIGHT Archaeologies of Sustainable Environments (EASE) aims at fostering the discourse on sustainability in archaeology. First founded at the universities of Uppsala, Groningen and Bern we strive to enhance the network to the other ENLIGHT universities.
Sustainability is one of the leading principles for future development, be it societal, economical or environmental. Since 2015 the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) developed by the UN have become a guiding tool to tackle nowadays challenges. Although the goals and connected indicators are targeted towards modern social and economic systems, archaeology can contribute to sustainability in a variety of ways. Archaeology and related disciplines can offer a unique deep time perspective which allows to track human endeavors and their sustainability over timespans longer than a human life or archival records. They can offer baseline data to assess current or future sustainability or can provide historical and modelled analogues for human-environment interactions. Also, archaeological institutions can and need to act sustainably to ensure long-term preservation of heritage and collaboration with local communities.
The aims of this workshop are:
Scientific discussion of archaeological contributions to sustainability
Network building among archaeology and related fields at ENLIGHT universities
Discuss future collaborations on research, teaching and public outreach within or beyond ENLIGHT |
