As a major knowledge institution in an oil-dependent region, the University of Stavanger has long played a key role in sustaining the petroleum economy, through research, education, and workforce development.In this panel discussion, we turn the question around and ask:
How can UiS become an arena for critical reflection, resistance, and transformation?
What role can research and education play in challenging the oil and gas industry and in opening up new, more sustainable ways of living in a region shaped by extractive wealth?
Panel :
- Freddie Daley, Centre for Global Political Economy, University of Sussex
- Shweta Narayan, Global Climate and Health Alliance
- Anders Riel Müller, UiS & Ghosts of Empire in the North Sea Research Collective.
- Helge Bøvik Larsen, Dean of the Faculty of Science and Technology at UiS
