Lecture Series

As a follow up to the first Normative Energy Ethics Workshop held in November 2021, the research group Philosophy of Engineering, Technology Assessment, and Science (PhilETAS) organizes a Normative Energy Ethics Lecture Series.

The program will run from May to July 2024 and will consist of online lectures delivered by an internationally renowned scholar along with the opportunity to openly exchange ideas in the usual subsequent Q&A session. 

These events aim to provide a platform to highlight ongoing endeavors by many scholars to engage crucial energy issues from the perspectives of ethical reasoning and reflection. The main goal is to expand work done in energy ethics by exploring different normative ethical perspectives as they may apply to energy, climate, and environmental issues.

Please register via the form below to attend the lectures. Registered participants will receive the access link the day before each online lecture.
