"As countries around the world come together to tackle the threat of climate change at the COP26 climate summit, the question of how cities can become more sustainable has never been more important. Dr Jonathan Clarke, Senior Teaching Fellow in Global Sustainable Development, discusses what some of the key challenges are for transforming our cities to become more resilient, equitable and sustainable to adapt to our changing world."

This video is part of the Faculty of Arts at Home series, produced by the faculty during lockdown and beyond. The series showcases the diversity of research in the Faculty of Arts in relation to overarching themes.

Earlier this week, Romain Chenet, Teaching Fellow in GSD, and Dr Alastair Smith, Senior Teaching Fellow in GSD, discussed the hidden and not-so hidden climate costs of the food in our fridges and pantries.

This event was part of the 2021 ESRC Festival of Social Science. You can find out more about the rest of the programme for the Festival here.
