Part of the biggest scientific event on Science and Technology Studies worldwide, I-opener proposed a interactive “Making and Doing” session. We introduced researchers to the concept of ecological consciousness through artwork-backed workshops.

I am affected by the next generation’s wellbeing. All people are connected. Our children care for our elders. As a parent I think about this question often. I sometimes feel self-centred by thinking that while I had a child, perhaps my daughter shouldn’t. I am hopeful about the contribution of Science and technology studies for Sustainability. Especially in the contexts of educating undergraduate students, and ideally in informing policy-level and community level actors to address climate change. Society and Business are “part” of Nature. Business is everywhere the core of our daily interactions. Nature gives us the tools to create business. Yes, Society and business are made possible through nature and in turn shape an organic nature in historically specific ways.
