For now KLI will cancel all public events as a preventive health measure. There will be the possibility, however, to attend some of the talks virtually. 

If you want to attend our next colloquium (31 March, 5.00 pm: David LUDWIG) virtually, please read the information below.

Topic description / abstract:

Global challenges such as climate change, food security, and public health require interaction between vastly different epistemic communities from Indigenous farmers to Western lab scientists. While stakeholder inclusion has become widely embraced in international development, its epistemology remains underdeveloped. Based on anthropological debates about cross-cultural relativity/universality of biological knowledge, this talk outlines an epistemology of inclusive development that is critically reflective about both opportunities and limitations of knowledge integration..
