Rethinking the Future II: Social Global Interventions.

Welcome to Rethinking the Future II

In the face of complex global challenges such as polarization, social inequalities, and climate change, a nuanced understanding of social and affective neuroscience is more crucial than ever to address these pervasive issues. This is why we are thrilled to present the second edition of our international and interdisciplinary event: Rethinking the Future: Social Global Interventions.

This conference will convene leading social and affective neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, political science, and beyond experts to explore how emerging research can inform and transform our approach to these vital areas. Through a series of focused sessions, attendees will engage with cutting-edge insights into the neural and psychological underpinnings of cooperation, the mechanics of hyperscanning in understanding social networks, the impact of neuroscience on personal well-being, and the role of moral and political thought in societal interactions.

Rethinking the Future is set to explore these topics academically and foster a dialogue on how interdisciplinary approaches can be harnessed to propose concrete solutions and promote changes toward a better world. You are more than welcome to join us on this journey.

When: 📅 November 11th to 14th/ 🕘 10 am - 5 pm (UTC-3)

Where: 🔴 Broadcast live on YouTube (INCT-SANI channel)
