This webinar considers the importance of communicating anthropological perspectives and methods to students in schools, colleges and other non-university settings. In an era when global understanding and recognition of diverse ways of seeing the world are of critical social, political and economic importance, anthropology has a central role to play in education. Speakers – including Joy Hendry, Tomislav Maric, Emma Ford and Kevin Purday – will discuss how anthropological thought can be introduced, taught and encouraged in schools. 

This event will be held on Zoom. To register please go here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAqcO-srzkqG9BjYRITMwVp-uQPSYtK2Ss8
