Mining Conversations
The Futurepasts of ... Petroleum
Mining Conversations invites you to join its second online session The Futurepasts of … Petroleum. The monthly online series critically reflects and discusses extraction and energy landscapes, across geographies and temporalities—up to this moment in which resource regimes more than ever shape economic, societal and environmental realities planetarily and locally in very unequal ways.

Mining Conversations | The Futurepasts of … invites you to their fourth session – this time on Petroleum. Mining Conversations are an open monthly online space for exchanges and collaborations across practices, temporalities, and across extraction and energy landscapes.
The next session will take place on July 29, 8pm (CEST), please register via the link here.
