The ORSI seminar held on February 17th 2021 brought together distinguished scholars from different disciplines to discuss the potential role of state in sustainability transformation. What kind of states can be leading actors in sustainability transformation? What are the current obstacles of states to promote the transformation? How to change welfare states to better address the ecological crisis? What needs to change in the state, the society, and the actors on the journey towards an ecowelfare state?



Speakers of the webinar include professor Robyn Eckersley from the University of Melbourne, professor Max Koch from Lund University, professor Ian Gough from the London School of Economics, and professor Eeva Furman from the Finnish Environment Institute.
