How Cultural Change Shapes Our Climate and Interactions
On November 17, 2026, the sub-conference on cultural change of the Regional Climate Conference Upper Franconia invites you to Bayreuth. The workshop connects social reflection with specific questions about sustainable lifestyles and is aimed at all interested parties.
Culture as the Engine of Our Everyday Lives
What do we understand by culture, and how does it influence our daily actions? The focus is on cultural patterns that shape our interactions and guide decisions in everyday life. It also addresses the connection between culture and unsustainable practices such as driving cars or flying.
Past Changes as Keys for the Future
The event sees cultural change not as an abstract theory. Participants analyze examples of changes that have already occurred and ask what conditions and factors have enabled this change. Photos, objects, images, or newspaper reports can be brought along as visual aids and enrich the discussion.
Workshop with a Scientific Perspective
The workshop will be led by PD Dr. Astrid Utler, a psychologist at the Chair of Psychology at the University of Bayreuth. Her professional perspective combines scientific classification with an open conversation atmosphere. The event emphasizes the social level and thereby complements the personal perspective of the sub-conference on value and consciousness change.
An Evening for Collective Reflection
In the seminar room of the Alexander von Humboldt House, space is created for exchange, analysis, and new impulses. The event planning focuses on participation: those who bring their own examples make cultural change visible and contribute to the joint development of success factors for future processes of change.
The event experience is aimed at people who want to understand climate protection not only technically but also socially. The audience atmosphere thrives on open dialogue and the question of how concrete change arises from insights.
Conclusion: Change Begins with a Collective Look Back
The workshop demonstrates that cultural habits are changeable and that past developments provide important clues for the future. Those who want to think about, discuss, and actively shape sustainable change will experience an informative and dialogue-oriented evening in Bayreuth.
