The OpenSpace Research Centre's research group in this area seeks to better understand and engage the sorts of conceptual and practical issues at stake at the intersection of environmental concerns, politics and justice through a series of conversations designed to connect and extend members' work on such issues as the distinctiveness of East European environmentalisms, critiques of forestry governance, property rights and resource use, political ecology and the global South, new forms of consumption on former communist states, media decision-making and environmental issues, sustainability and governance, and more. Such conversations have generated collective work on questioning neoliberal environmental governance, and have also significantly contributed to the ongoing 'Interdependence Day' and 'Creative Climate' projects.
