About the event

Imagining Another Nature: Indigenous Knowledges, Environmental Narratives and Questions of Pluralism
Join this lecture by PhD Fellow Rithma Kreie Engelbreth Larsen from Aarhus Universitet, as the first in the open lecture series New Histories of Ideas.

This talk will explore the growing recognition of Indigenous knowledges in global environmental discourses, from the Rights of Nature movement to institutions like the IPCC. While still widely marginalized, Indigenous epistemologies are in some contexts beginning to challenge and reshape dominant understandings of both knowledge and nature. In recognition of long-standing epistemic injustices, the talk explores the conceptual emergence of Indigenous knowledge as a key development in the history of ideas. Drawing on Donna Haraway’s concept of situated knowledges, Rithma Kreie Engelbreth Larsen examines the tensions of epistemic pluralism within dominant scientific frameworks, and the challenges of engaging across divergent worldviews – each partial and situated, but unequally recognized as such. This study invites the history of ideas to reckon more fully with Indigenous knowledges as world-making practices with transformative potentials for reimagining past and future worlds.

The lecture will be followed by a reception.
No registration is necessary.
