For you?

Although the (potential) massive impact of climate change on our lives and physical and mental well-being has been known for decades, the necessary fundamental changes in our societies are still not being made enough. Logically, this can lead to frustration, despair, anger, depression and anxiety among (young) people. Such feelings and thoughts are normal reactions to this situation, but they can sometimes be difficult to deal with.

In this workshop in English, we'll discuss existential philosophy and psychology theories that can help you better understand and deal with your (emotional) reactions to the climate crisis. These theoretical concepts will form the basis for discussions and practical exercises.

Max van der Linden studied biological psychology and sociology of science at the University of Amsterdam and holds a PhD in medical history from Utrecht University. He is currently a lecturer and researcher at the Department of Psychology at the University of Amsterdam. His research focuses on the history of psychology, psychiatry and brain sciences. He teaches various courses on climate, mind and behaviour.

This workshop is part of the Well-being Week 2025.
