Buchdahl Symposium: Kim TallBear on Indigenous STS, Governance and Decolonization

The 2021 Buchdahl Symposium on Science, Technology and Human Values will feature a lecture by Kimberly TallBear, associate professor of native studies at the University of Alberta and Canada research chair in Indigenous peoples, technoscience and environment.
Like traditional science and technology studies, the new field of Indigenous science and technology studies focuses on the cultures, politics and histories of non-Indigenous science and technology efforts and Indigenous-led science and technology, including knowledge classified as “traditional.”
The Science, Technology and Society program, Interdisciplinary Studies and the College of Humanities and Social Sciences will host this event. The Genetic Engineering and Society Center is providing logistical support.
