Event: Living Sustainably with Water: An Interdisciplinary Challenge
Published: 25 April 2022
This session will focus on Value and Meaning of Water. It is the first in a series of four interdisciplinary workshops exploring diverse perspectives on water, organised by the Glasgow Water Cluster.
Water and Value Workshop - 13th May 2022
Organisers: Dr Minty Donald, Professor of Contemporary Performance Practice and Dr Jill Robbie, Senior Lecturer in Law.
University of Glasgow is hosting a series of Workshops which aim to bring together researchers from a diverse range of disciplines and relevant stakeholders to gain a greater understanding of the conceptualisation of water from a variety of perspectives. This will allow the co-production of a future interdisciplinary research agenda for living sustainably with water. Each Workshop will be organised under sub-themes which are intentionally interdisciplinary to facilitate exploration and collaboration.
The first Workshop will explore the process of framing the value and meaning of water. It will investigate how different conceptualisations of water feed into the governance of the resource, how this impacts on different social and ecological groups, and how alternative framings of water’s economic, environmental, and socio-cultural value might facilitate living sustainably with water.
