Details
In this performative lecture, Professor Marchevska will discuss the impact of collaboration and creative methods on the way we produce knowledge in art, culture and society. She was always curious about what drives research collaborations in arts and science and in this talk she will also explore what kind of knowledge production we need for the future, in a world shaped by AI and rapid technological developments.
Professor Marchevska will further discuss how she is using art, co-creation and lived experience methods in her research with migrants, refugees and asylum seekers. She will also present on diAerent streams of her research and how they come together to shape policy recommendations on cultural social prescribing.
