Reinstitutioning Spring School - UHasselt

The Reworlding Spring School will take place at UHasselt, in the historic Beguinage of Hasselt (Belgium), from 4 to 7 May 2026. This four-day intensive programme brings together researchers, practitioners, and students to explore the role of re-institutioning in socio-environmental transitions, examining how institutions can be rethought and reshaped in times of ongoing crises.

The programme is structured around three thematic lenses - Politics of Institutions, Embodied Institutions, and Institutions in Dialogue - and combines keynote lectures, workshops, and interactive sessions. Participants engage with diverse perspectives, explore relationships between communities, institutions, and more-than-human actors, and contribute their own insights into inclusive and collaborative governance. Keynotes are also open for individual attendance, with further details and registration available via dedicated event pages.
