Description
How do emotions influence our decisions and commitments? This lecture explores how art can awaken emotions that can transform our relationship with the world and encourage sustainable behavior. Through a dialogue between art and science, Prof. Tobias Brosch, psychologist and researcher at the University of Geneva, questions the role of emotions in decision-making when faced with environmental issues. Drawing on research in cognitive neuroscience and the psychology of sustainable behavior, he shows how emotions guide our choices, values, and actions.
