Blue Table Webinars

What does it mean to be human? The Blue Table Webinars 2022 endeavor to stimulate conversations around key ethical interrogations on humanity in relationship with other living species. 

This era, more than any other before, confronts us with unique questions of ethical discernment. How individuals arrive at judgments for their lives has an intimate impact on the normative consensus-building in societies, and vice versa. Societies’ continuous negotiations on what is deemed appropriate for living together have also repercussions on the individual conduct of life. 

The fundamental question, however, remains: Are we able to define contours of what it means to be human? The 2022 Blue Table Webinar series does not aim at providing an encyclopedic response, but rather endeavors to open a space for interdisciplinary exploration and exchange – with both theoretical and practical depth on selected topics in the field. The lens through which the leading question is explored is one of curiosity: the webinars are arranged around six verbs – remembering, thinking, working, eating, inventing, and loving – on which interlocutors from different regions of the world, experts in their own fields with a keen interest in ethics, will be sharing their viewpoints.

You are invited to this lively and inspiring journey of reflection! Do not miss this unique opportunity of being part of these engaging intercultural conversations on ethics. Find our programme below. Join us and share it with your networks: #BlueTableWebinars.
