Vegetal Alterities. Multispecific entanglements with plants.

The objective of the Alteridades Vegetais event is to bring together researchers, indigenous and non-indigenous, from different areas of knowledge of human sciences interested in plant life and its multispecific entanglements. The so-called "vegetable interactions" make room for innovative and interdisciplinary approaches that invite us to experiment with other thoughts and epistemologies, with a view to making room for new conceptual tools, less centered on humanity as its paradigmatic figure. The event aims to encourage discussions that depart from other-than-human socialities, in particular, from the agencies of plant beings in order to weave alliances in the face of the current deepening of the environmental and climate crisis.
