Extra Info:Engaging with Climate Change: Psychoanalytic Perspectives. A Weekend Conference on Psychoanalysis and Climate Change 16/17 October 2010.

How does our knowledge of climate change affect our sense of identity? What might underlie issues of connection with, and disconnection from, the natural world? How do we understand the denial of climate change?

Speakers from the field of psychoanalysis explore these and other questions with scientists, environmentalists, writers, educationalists and policy makers. The conference aims to achieve a better understanding through interdisciplinary exchange.
