ASI Symposium: The role of science in times of polarisation 6 March 2025 13:30 - 17:00

Share
How can we navigate the challenges of polarisation? What is the role of science in this context? And how can ASI contribute to positive societal change? Join this timely and crucial discussion during our upcoming ASI Symposium.

As we find ourselves in times of polarisation, it is crucial to find ways of interacting with it. This Symposium offers a space for reflection for the ASI community members and beyond. The event serves as an opportunity to come together, discuss, connect, and find a way forward in the increasingly complex architecture of the modern-day time.

The Symposium will begin with a round of MatchMaking, where participants will be given a chance to network with colleague from other departments. The event will be officially kicked-off with opening speeches by Dr. Eva Wolf (Tilburg University) and Sjoukje van Oosterhout (Milieudefensie), who will reflect on the concept of polarisation. Make sure to follow one of the three workshops and return to the plenary for a panel discussion. After the closing, we warmly invite the participants to stay for the borrel and the second round of MatchMaking.

More information about the program, as well as the official sign-up form, will follow in early 2025.

We hope to see you on 6 March!
