Public Lecture: Interdisciplinarity a process of negotiated imagination? | Center for Applied Ecological Thinking (University of Copenhagen)
«Interdisciplinarity a process of negotiated imagination?»
Our EcoArtLab Researcher Johanna Paschen co-organised an exiting lecture on why the humanities matter for climate research, that was taking place at the Center for Applied Ecological Thinking (University of Copenhagen).
This talk addressed the limitations of siloed expertise and science-technocratic solutions that lack critical, reflexive, and cultural grounding.
The talk also asked whether and how interdisciplinarity can be more than a buzzword. Because what does interdisciplinarity really mean? Can it be something that serves as a meaningful mode of shared inquiry? A way of working that values epistemic justice and embraces productive friction tensions not only between the humanities and natural sciences, but also among social sciences and the arts?
The talk with professor Marianne Achiam, Science Communication at the Department of Science Education, University of Copenhagen, was followed by a conversation with artistic postdoc EVA la Cour and visiting PhD Johanna Paschen about shifting interdisciplinary terrains and how artists, scientists, and citizens can collaborate to shape more just forms and cultures of knowledge.
