We are thrilled to invite you to participate in the second meeting of our PGR-led reading group as part of the Futuring Interculturality project. As highlighted in the project announcement, this initiative aims to recontextualize interculturality and explore its diverse applications. Our reading group serves as a platform for engaging with thought-provoking ideas and fostering meaningful discussions on interculturality.
