About this Event
Life surrounds us in ways that are often subtle or easily overlooked, beneath the soil, under water, and at the edges of urban and rural environments.
This Powered by PechaKucha presentation series at Etihad Museum explores forms of life and life-sustaining systems through perspectives on urban ecologies, pollinators, insect life, fungi, and the often overlooked relationships between humans and the natural world.
Five speakers from different disciplines will offer new ways of looking at the quieter, less obvious presences that exist around us in the UAE.
