SCORAI Virtual Conference Recap

On June 10-12, the Sustainable Consumption Research and Action Initiative (SCORAI) held its fourth international conference with the Northeastern University School of Public Policy and Urban Affairs as a sponsor. This year, because of the coronavirus, the conference was held completely online. While the shift required a quick switch of plans, over 390 people from 33 countries still registered to take part. Additionally, the new virtual offering coincided with SCORAI’s overall mission of reducing consumption and travel while making the conference materials accessible on a global scale. Keynotes are as follows:

  • First Day: Welcome & Keynote Integrating Social Justice in Sustainable Consumption Studies: Esteban Kelly and Sherilyn MacGregor
  • Second Day: Consumption in an Urbanizing World: Anna Coote, Arnold Tukker, Emily Kawano
  • Third Day: The Path Forward: Barbara Muraca and Peter Victor
