Rural and Agrarian Disease Knowledge Workshop

18 October 2022

The Global War Against the Rat project and the Centre for Global Knowledge Studies (Cambridge) are convening a workshop Rural and Agrarian Disease Knowledge.

Held on November 4 2022 and convened by Inanna Hamati-Ataya, Matheus Alves Duarte da Silva and Christos Lynteris, this hybrid workshop will discuss the epistemic co-constitution of the rural/agrarian and infectious diseases by asking: how have human interactions with infectious diseases impacted ways of knowing and acting on rural and agrarian spaces and environments? And, in turn, how have human interactions with rural and agrarian spaces and environments impacted ways of knowing and acting against infectious diseases?
