Många goda insikter från talarna på sem. Hållbart båtliv #båtmässan. Johan L. Holmén @TheChallengeLab inleder med hur vi kan navigera till hållbarhetsdriven omställning. Båtlivet har miljöutmaningar och Ida Wendt @havsmiljo berättar om fritidsbåtars påverkan på marina miljöer.
Sometimes time is a scarce resource at the lab. When that is the case, we use timers to keep the work focussed ;-)
Today we distill, broaden and deepen our understanding of main regional sustainability challenges related to mobility, to eventually identify leverage points where smaller interventions can have transitional impacts, and work together with societal actors in adressing!
Sharing our systems representations across groups. Although awareness is high about current issues, not least environmental, things seem to develop as they always have. Knowledge-deficit model apparently not enough to explain the absence of transitional change.
We are currently mapping dominant socio-technical systems configurations and interesting alternatives in West Sweden related to: personal mobility, collective mobility, goods, and tourism. Next steps: surface major sustainability challenges and potential for transformative change

A good day today when @TheChallengeLab moves back into @JohannebergSP Right now this years master thesises are being presented, impressive and spot on about some of our challenges within urban development. challengelab.chalmers.se/mas… – at Gothenburg, Sweden
Collaboration in complex urban freight systems by Per Persson and Nora Fischer. What would happen if the freight systems were disrupted for 1 day? 3 days?

Earlier this spring I managed to present my licentiate :) Attempt to further integrate sustainability- and transitions research, studying contexts and learning processes for transdisciplinary navigation of transitions and some methodological development. research.chalmers.se/publica…

Two open free-to-shape PhD positions at my division, frame proposal and relate to the group you find most interesting (I’m in sustainability transitions research and governance = ”Navigating Sustainability Transitions” group). Feel free to share!

Real honor to speak about my biggest passion to emphasize the women's role in science. Happy International Women's Day! #InternationalWomensDay #Chalmers #TME

Listening to the second of three student-led dialogue session on sustainable development (today's theme: mobility). Great to see our students taking charge of their own learning and managing interesting discussions among the invited stakeholders! #chalmersftw #chalmersTME

@sisitka_heila presenting on #transformative #sociallearning for #global change at the 4th National #GlobalChange2018 conference in Limpopo @ULvarsity @RhodesResearch "it's about looking into the eyes of other people & thinking how your science can connect to them".

"Are we really interested in a just transition? Or are we merely interested in tinkering around the edges while not doing anything of great importance or usefulness?" Provacative words to ponder from @MarkSwilling guest lecture at #GlobalChangeConference2018 @WitsGCI
