We will explore the idea of the pluriversity via the community building website Designing the Pluriversity (https://designingpluriversity.org). On the website you will find a number of invitations to provocations we can reflect on as a group.

Both meetings will take place via Zoom this term.
Early notice: we are planning our Annual Lecture in person this year and will share details about that as soon as we can. We look forward to seeing you all then!
