~ FUTURE THINKERS SESSIONS ~ Biodiversity in the anthropocene

SCIENCE – TECHNOLOGY – NATURE - SUSTAINABILITY

An open platform to meet and chat with other 'self-proclaimed' controversial deep thinkers, scientists and philosophers... basically anyone who likes to think about anything. This is a realistic, fun and empowering meet-up about applying science to social concern.

This month we are fortunate enough to have Andres Pazimo presenting. Andres is a conservation expert from Equador, a country with one of the most diverse landscapes, which encompasses the Amazon jungle, Andean highlands and the wildlife-rich Galápagos Islands. He'll be sharing about the importance of biodiversity, the problems with the current systems of protected areas, a socio-ecological approach to conservation and the importance of functional human-nature integration.

As part of the Future Thinkers Sessions each month, we also provide...

• Study groups and panel discussions on philosophical questions like "How do we engage people resistant to logic and reason?" or "Does wealth provide happiness?"

• Awesome socially-aware music, podcasts and radio shows

• Insightful and hilarious pointed videos for social concern

Please feel free to sit at the back and hide in the corner, or announce your opinion of some particular policy, or share your understanding of a scientific discovery or discuss your general thoughts on a particular topic. :D ;) We'd love that.

We look forward to meeting you!
