Environmental Humanities Switzerland – a decade in retrospect
Environmental crises confront humanity with challenges that reach into all areas of society – from poverty and exclusion, capitalism and finance, to forced migration, global health, and artificial intelligence. This article traces the history of saguf ’s working group Environmental Humanities from 2014 to 2025 and reflects on its contributions in Switzerland and beyond.
