UKERC Public Engagement Observatory Webinar – Mapping public engagement with energy, climate change and net zero

3S / July 25, 2023

The UKERC Public Engagement Observatory, based in the 3S Research Group, maps the many different ways that people are engaging with energy, climate change and net zero on an ongoing basis. In this webinar, taking place on Monday 11th September 2023, 2-3pm, the Observatory team will present the findings of a major new analysis of public engagement with energy, climate change and net zero in the UK and consider implications for developing a more systemic approach to public participation and engagement. This will be followed by a panel discussion involving specialists in public engagement with energy and climate change, before opening-up to wider questions and answers.

Webinar Chair: Prof Jason Chilvers (Professor of Environment and Society, University of East Anglia; UKERC Co-Director and Public Engagement Observatory lead)

Speakers:

  • Prof Patrick Devine-Wright (Professor in Human Geography, University of Exeter; ACCESS leadership team director)
  • Claire Mellier-Wilson (Freelance participatory process consultant; Co-founder of the Global Assembly)
  • Dr Phedeas Stephanides (Senior Research Fellow, Public Engagement Observatory, University of East Anglia)

Participation and Engagement

The rise of public participation in science and the environment in all its forms – ranging from institutionalised invited spaces of engagement to those that are uninvited and citizen-led – has the potential to empower citizens, enhance social justice and the quality of decisions, but also to close down, disempower and exclude. Research under this theme involves the study of democratic experiments and innovations in participatory governance. These are reconfiguring relationships between science, policy and society and coproducing knowledges, appraisals and commitments in response to sustainability challenges.
