SUMMARY:Converting Natural Resources: Representations\, Performances\, Narratives
DESCRIPTION:This conference considers visual\, textual\, material\, and performative engagement with processes of commodification in the early modern world. It explores how images\, objects\, and practices converted environments into resources\, natural resources into lucrative items with commercial and tax-yielding significance\, and destructive forces and forced labor into idealized landscapes and aestheticized bodies. The conference shifts the focus from the collection and display of phenomena in cabinets of curiosities\, to the mechanisms and processes through which raw materials were converted into commodities. \nThe conference is free to attend with advance registration\, and will be held in-person at the Clark Library. Registration will close on Monday\, November 27 at 5:00 p.m. Seating is limited at the Clark Library; walk-in registrants are welcome as space permits. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Community Engaged Research for Just Energy Services Transitions
DESCRIPTION:People do not need kilowatts; instead\, they need the multitude of services provided by access to energy\, including thermal comfort\, refrigeration of food and medicine\, cooking\, lighting\, communication\, and transportation. As socio-technological systems experience rapid transitions associated with addressing climate change\, inequity in access\, aging infrastructures\, and the negative socio-environmental consequences of current energy systems\, addressing justice is paramount. Taking an energy services approach changes how we approach energy systems research and pursuit of energy justice\, and community engagement is an essential tool for promoting just processes and outcomes. In this talk\, Dr. Schelly presents some of her research collaborative research using community engagement research methods to promote just energy services access through energy systems transitions. Key takeaways from this work include the importance of collaboration across institutional domains\, the complex implications of pursuing of energy sovereignty\, and the role of ontological pluralism in supporting meaningful engagement that can support energy justice and a transition to a decarbonized energy system. \nJoin via Zoom (passcode=ucdenergy)
