As part of the activities of the Global Entrepreneurship Week, the College of Arts at Al-Qadisiyah University holds a scientific symposium on adaptation in the era of super-modernity

Under the patronage of Prof. Dr. Kazem Jabr Al-Jubouri, President of Al-Qadisiyah University, and under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Nabil Omran Al-Khalidi, Dean of the College of Arts, the College of Arts held a scientific symposium entitled (Adaptation in the Age of Super Modernity: Advanced Policies for Disaster Management in Japan in Light of Climate Change as a Model) in which Prof. Dr. Hussein Ali Abdul Hussein lectured and the session was moderated by Assistant Professor Dr. Khaled Marzouq Rasan. The symposium aimed to study and evaluate scientifically the employment of the most important characteristics of the era of super modernity, represented by (acceleration and continuous change, the emergence of transient spaces, fluid identities and multidimensional thinking, ambiguity and decentralization, orientation towards the future, integration between technology and daily life). The Japanese planning mind has succeeded in employing all the intellectual characteristics of the aforementioned era of super modernity to achieve adaptation to natural disasters resulting from global climate change. One of the most important recommendations that emerged from the scientific symposium is the necessity of benefiting from Japan’s pioneering experience in employing the most important intellectual characteristics of the era of super modernity in adapting to the results of global climate change.
