Date Time
European Humanities Conference, 5-7 May in Lisbon, hosted by Portugal and UNESCO
UNESCO and Portugal are organizing the European Humanities Conference from 5 to 7 May in Lisbon, which will focus on the need to take better account of the humanities in public policymaking.
This need is even more important at a time when the COVID-19 crisis has accentuated pre-existing inequalities throughout the world, particularly in terms of income, opportunities, socio-economic dignity, political freedom, access to knowledge and gender equality. The conference aims to put the humanities back at the heart of scientific strategies and public policies to address contemporary challenges such as, among others, climate and environmental change, migration, epidemics, and gender issues.
