The Nanovic Institute for European Studies presents: Current Affairs Cafe: A Case for Climate Reparations with Elsa Barron What is the correct response to the disparity between high emitting countries and those who experience the results of those emissions? This is a chance to challenge your preconceived ideas, build your civic discourse skills with an introduction to evidence-based productive dialogue techniques, and connect with fellow students over tea and biscuits. Snacks, tea, and coffee will be provided. All undergraduates welcome—bring your curiosity and an open mind! About the Current Affairs Cafe The Current Affairs Cafe is a chance for undergraduate students to come together over coffee, tea, and snacks to discuss timely issues facing our world. While these conversations can seem difficult in our increasingly polarized society, this series will teach best practices on productive dialogue so that students can build critical discourse skills. The Nanovic Institute for European Studies will be presenting these student events a few times each semester, bringing in a speaker to start a conversation on a globally relevant topic, so while we will discuss Europe, we will also consider perspectives and questions drawn from all continents. Any undergraduate looking to engage and have a stimulating conversation is most welcome to attend. Originally published at nanovic.nd.edu.
