With science and the human mind in focus

What is it about the human mind that allows us to figure things out with such a precision? How can we improve the ways in which science helps us address societal challenges? And why is there an increasing distrust towards science among the public?

How should the church be governed?

The elections for the Church of Sweden will be held on 19 September. This year the focus is on how political the church should be, but the agenda also includes issues such as the environment, economy and education. 

Ethical issues emerge when Holocaust stories are digitalised

Digitalisation is sweeping across Europe. The political ambitions are high, and  accessibility and democratisation are keywords. But when it's time to digitalise the cultural heritage of Sweden, ethical issues emerge.

Calendar

27 October 2021

Inaugural lecture Harald Wiltsche: Lifeworld and Science

3.30 pm – 5.00 pm Room TEMCAS, Tema building, Campus Valla and on Zoom.

Public belief in the authority of science is waning. Why? In his inaugural lecture Harald Wiltsche, professor of philosophy, will advance the thesis that the critical state of scientific culture is in part self-imposed and has to do with unresolved tensions between lifeworld and science. The lecture is held in English and is open to the general public. Please register via email to Monica Wise, October 20 at the latest, if you want to attend on campus.
