“Would you sequence your own genome?"
1) Academic Freedom Under Attack. 27 October 2016, from 9.30am, Summerhall
This workshop is free to attend, open to all, no registration necessary.
The workshop is composed by three presentations dealing primarily with underexplored theoretical debates about human dignity. Papers also relate theoretical discussions with practical matters such as the constraints dignity poses to the use of violence by states and other public actors, and the place of human dignity in legal discourse and case law.
You are invited for the screening of a documentary, ‘Hidden in Silence’, based on Childhood Sexual Abuse in the Scottish Ethnic Minorities. The film is made by film maker, Nauman Qureshi, and researcher, Javita Narang, with a small grant received from Roshni/Big Lottery Scottish Ethnic Minority Fund. The screenings are sponsored by the Innovation Initiative Grant, University of Edinburgh.
