Confluence is an international gathering of researchers with a series of events hosted over three days, hosted by Critical Environments Cluster in the Department of English and Comparative Literary Studies (ECLS) and the Environmental Humanities Network (EHN) at U of Warwick. It will focus on methods for research and pedagogy in the Environmental Humanities.
As part of an endeavour to link up Environmental Humanities research currently conducted across the Faculty of Arts and the U of Warwick, as a pilot Summer Term event for the new MAEH based in ECLS, as an inaugural event for the relaunch of our EHN, and as part of the new University Spotlight on Sustainability, we are organizing Confluence: a symposium on research methods in the Environmental Humanities, to be held in the Faculty of Arts Building on the morning of 31^st May. 
The event also convenes a new Eutopia-funded Connected Community focused on Environmental Humanities that brings together researchers based at U of Warwick, Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, NOVA University Lisbon, and Dresden University of Technology. We will welcome three faculty and five MA students from Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, two faculty and one PhD student from NOVA University Lisbon, and one faculty and three PhD students from Dresden University of Technology, all researchers in areas of the Environmental Humanities and STS.

The Warwick Ukraine-Belarus (WUB) Hub and the European Parliament Liaison Office (EPLO) in the UK invite you to the conference “The EU Integration Prospects for Ukraine and Belarus: Assessing the future”

Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine brought severe security, political and societal challenges to eastern Europe, demanding a constructive response from the European Union, the United Kingdom, and others. The invasion has hastened Ukraine’s EU accession prospects, while the Belarusian democracy movement has made a clear choice in favour of an EU future. The Warwick Ukraine-Belarus Hub’s high-profile international conference on 28 June 2024 in London will bring together decision-makers, officials and scholarly experts to advance the crucial debate on both countries’ futures.

The conference will be a special opportunity for participants to exchange novel ideas, challenge existing thinking, and advance the key strategic discussions. It will showcase novel research and facilitate network building. Speakers will include representatives from the UK parliament, European institutions, and experts on and from both Ukraine and Belarus. We are glad to invite you to this unique event. Please register here to attend the event.
