How can their practical impact be increased?</li>\n<li>How can abstract principles like justice\, responsibility\, and sustainability be materialized?</li>\n<li>What responsibility lies on different societal actors in the context of climate change\, and how can they live up to it?</li>\n<li>How does solidarity inform how we act in the face of climate change?</li>\n<li>How can future generations be better taken into consideration?</li>\n<li>What role do uncertainty and the precautionary principle play in decision-making around climate change?</li>\n<li>How can fundamental ethical considerations be operationalized as legal and political principles to inform and shape climate action?</li>\n<li>How can indigenous voices and knowledge have an equal place in decisions on climate change mitigation and adaptation?</li>\n</ul>\n<p>For this two-day symposium\, we invite presentations from all stakeholders\, including scholars\, policy-makers\, practitioners\, journalists\, activists\, and others.</p>\n<p>Please submit an abstract of up to 500 words.
