- **Event Name**: Amazwi Literature Heritage Ecology Conference 2026
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 25 Mar, 2026 at 09:00 am – Thu, 26 Mar, 2026 at 05:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The annual Amazwi Literature, Heritage and Ecology Conference is an interdisciplinary conference that welcomes participants from across the humanities and the sciences, and that fosters cooperation and interaction between them with the aim of helping to resolve the social-ecological crises we face today.

The conference theme ‘People and Other Animals’ invokes ecocritical approaches to animal studies. The ways in which animals are represented in literature, and indeed across the arts and sciences, shape and are shaped by human understanding of the natural world and our place in it. The ecocritical approach to the understanding of animals turns a critical gaze on anthropocentric perspectives on non-human animals and explores the complex interactions between ‘us’ and ‘them’. In doing so it questions the boundaries we have created between ourselves and other animals and ponders how these boundaries may be disrupted and reimagined for the mutual benefit of all the living things concerned. Presentations are invited that explore the theme of ‘People and Other Animals’ and all related matters.
