The buzzword “poly-crisis” describes an enduring state of profound and diverse challenges, which is manifested in conflicts at various levels: from global climate change, wars in the Middle East and Ukraine to local farmers’ protests and the rise of populism.
Many feel overwhelmed and resigned, perceiving themselves as powerless. Yet, the key to addressing the poly-crisis may lie within personal and regional contexts. Everyday actions can make a difference, serving as role models, and catalyzing significant change. Thus, the journey towards a sustainable society requires the willingness to participate: “Who will save the world?” emerges as the central question in actively tackling challenges and crafting solutions together.
The 5th Ethics Day at Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences is dedicated to this mission. Through expert lectures and interactive workshops, participants will be encouraged to join in, seeking pathways out of powerlessness and actively shaping transformation.
