Climate change poses serious threats for humanity and nature alike. A number of ethical questions are attached to these challenges: What is unjust about these impacts? What should be done to avoid them? What is owed to those suffering from climate harms if they are not avoided? Who must take responsibility for action? And what can legitimately be done if the relevant actors do not pursue sufficient measures?

The aim of the DACH Climate Ethics Network and its 2nd annual workshop is to bring together people working on these questions who are in some loose way related to the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) – for instance, because they work at a University in the DACH region, or because they plan their academic future there – to discuss the current issues of climate ethics.
