The biodiversity crisis is not only destroying nature: it also threatens our societies, our well-being, and our survival. Based on scientific assessments and findings from IPBES, this Francqui Chair explores our toxic relationship with nature, the global failure to protect it, and the multiple values of living organisms. We will examine ways to recognize these values, repair our relationship, and bring about the transformative change that is needed.

Keen to put the protection of ecosystems back at the center of public debate, UNamur is organizing a second Francqui Chair in Law this academic year with Professor Delphine Misonne on a related theme: "Need for the environment, need for law?"

Free event upon registration.
