In his workshop, Julian will challenge you to look not for solutions, but to ask the right questions. First he will outline the concept of 'just sustainabilities’, arguing that integrating social needs and welfare, offers us a more ‘just,’ rounded, and equity-focused definition of sustainability and sustainable development, while not negating the very real environmental threats we face. He will then look at examples of just sustainabilities, from bike shares to ‘local’ food, through a series of focused questions we need to be asking ourselves.
