Concorde aims to create a shared intellectual platform for literature, language studies, and sustainability. In a world increasingly threatened by environmental crises, technological disruption (particularly AI), geopolitical conflicts, economic instability, and global migration, the humanities are called upon to rethink their roles and responsibilities.
This conference explores how literary, linguistic, and cultural studies can respond to contemporary global crises and contribute to building a sustainable future. By encouraging interdisciplinary dialogue, Concorde seeks to bridge sustainability and the humanities in meaningful and impactful ways.
