Worlds Beyond US

Event date: 
Thursday 21 February 2019

WORLDS BEYOND US. Join us for an invigorating symposium as PhD candidates present their research on the multiple interactions between humans and non-humans. In this symposium, we will further our understanding of humanity in healthcare administration, animal ethics and personhood in animal-assisted therapy, material therapy in dementia, moral economy in boycott movements, the social life of abortion pills, microbial worlds and military metaphors, dog food in the more-than-human family, and how landscapes make or unmake epidemics.
