In this series, our talented inherit fellows will delve into the realms of heritage through multidisciplinary approaches, focusing on the key theme of inheritance. From ancestral remains and colonial legacies to genetic memory, religious rituals, and postcolonial art, these lectures will illuminate how inheritance influences belonging, identity, and knowledge.

🎤 The sessions will feature contributions from a diverse group of artists and researchers from various fields, including Anthropology, Art History, History, Literature, Philosophy, Political Sciences, and Sociology.
