CAPTURED Horizon Scanning Workshop 1
Professor Elena Korosteleva was invited to give a talk on 'Why we should think 'Resilience' when we talk about Green Transitions?' to the CAPTURED project organised by Warwick's Policy Lab. Elena focused on understanding the Anthropocene through the lens of a VUCA-world and complexity-thinking, and why we need to understand resilience as a way of living, relating, and managing complex life. Green transitions - whichever ways we think of them - will not happen if we 1) don't have a holistic approach; 2) don't change our thinking & behaviour; and 3) don't facilitate agential change, through nurturing resilience as political agency.
Strategic Publication of the Key Concepts for the Future of the EU
Professor Korosteleva was invited to contribute a piece on resilience to the strategic volume of Key Concepts for the Future of the EU, published by the Swedish Institute for European Policy Studies (SIEPS), 3 March 2025. The volume came together at the request of policy-makers, and covers key themes that the EU and global leadership will work with in 2025+, including geopolitics, resilience, security, democracy etc. It offers innovative and creative perspectives, to ensure that the challenges posited by complex geopolitics and the Anthropocene, are adequately considered, going forward. It is available for a free download.
