The Climate Crisis and the Future of Work Summer School aims to play a part in helping to address these knowledge and capability gaps.
About this event
The 2021 Annual Assembly and Executive of the Canadian Industrial Relations Association (CIRA-ACRI) resolved that climate change is a top priority in the association’s engagement with the world of work.
Subsequently, CIRA-ACRI established a unique interuniversity partnership between the School of Industrial Relations at the Université de Montréal (ÉRIUM), the Centre for Industrial Relatiowwns and Human Resources at the University of Toronto (CIRHR-UoT), the Interuniversity Research Centre on Globalization and Work (CRIMT) and Blue-Green Ideas (a consultancy dealing with the challenges of climate change) to address climate issues. This Summer School outreach initiative is the result of this collaboration.
The activity entails a week-long Summer School on the Climate Crisis and the Future of Work (June 6-10 2022), taking place simultaneously in two languages (French and English) at the Université de Montréal and the University of Toronto. (Official Website)
It will bring together key researchers, educators, and students with practitioners in labour, business, and policymaking to address issues related to building a fair economy and a sustainable environment. Participants will also address key issues of social dialogue and how to achieve better work, a robust democracy, and a just society. Thereafter, the initiative will facilitate continuing exchange between the research, practitioner, climate innovator and policy communities through a series of webinars around core themes explored in the Summer School.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is possible to register for one day, several days or the whole week. Please make your choice according to your preferences. If you want to participate all week, please select every single day.
