The objective is to involve students, scholars, the faculty, civil society, and the larger public in meaningful discussions to foster theoretical and practical engagement to advance Indigenous Peoples’ rights.
The guest will delve into the difficulties that stem from the prevalence of Western scientific knowledge in relation to contemporary issues, as well as the importance of the emergence of Indigenous Peoples’ traditional knowledge to better address these issues.
