Mari Martiskainen, Senior Research Fellow, Sussex Energy Group, Science Policy Research Group, University of Sussex, UK

The seminar is based on this backing reading: Contextualizing climate justice activism: Knowledge, emotions, motivations, and actions among climate strikers in six cities (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gloenvcha.2020.102180)
