How can historical research offer perspective in todayβs changing climate?
Join professor and environmental historian Dagomar Degroot (Georgetown University) for a public lecture at Trippenhuis exploring how people in the past experienced and responded to changing environmental and climatic conditions.
The lecture takes place as part of HEAT, a research project at the Huygens Institute that investigates historical climate and energy transitions using digital humanities methods.
The programme is moderated by Nienke de la Rive Box, who will lead a Q&A with Degroot and the audience following the lecture.
