What I like the most in academia are the interdisciplinary exchanges that lead to us being able to challenge what we think we know and learn new things every single day.
Presenting today with Dr Carlos Farate on the Psychoanalysis of Permacrisis and Everyday Extremism @OppAttune
🙏Grateful to our partners at @KCSSQKSS for convening a powerful focus group on political #Everdayextremism as part of the #OppAttune project. The dialogue on media manipulation, hate speech, and democratic resilience is vital to shaping inclusive and sustainable societies.
On Friday, a focus group on political extremism was held at ITP Park in Prizren in the framework of the @OppAttune project.
Participants discussed media manipulation, hate speech, and the challenges of building a sustainable democratic dialogue.
