On NaturArchy: art, science and rights of nature | 23/02/2024
This talk will discuss NaturArchy- the theme of the upcoming exhibition of the JRC SciArt project – from an artistic, philosophical and governance point of view. The provocation at the heart of NaturArchy is that we must extend Rousseau’s social contract to nature if we really want to be successful in the fight against environmental degradation, extractivist practices, and socio-environmental injustice.
