CASE Poster at the Long Night of Research
CASE presented at the Long Night of Research at the Free University of Bolzano
Friday, 30 September 2016, from 5 p.m. to midnight
When looking at the present crises that have been causing havoc with mankind, one comes to realize that our world will be different in the future. What we need is a broader, more open-minded perspective that enables us to peer beyond the boundaries of our habitual ways of doing things, our specialized disciplines and our conventional ideologies, and that can also visualize the pluralism and the inherent contradictions of our modern, globally-networked world.
This year’s edition of the Long Night of Research (LUNA) showed that in times of political and economic crises scientists can provide this “big picture” – a broader point of view gained through networking with colleagues across the EU and based on their knowledge and the results of their research. People learned that scientists can help them understand what is happening in the world and that their research aims to provide concrete solutions to confront the manifestations of global problems in our region.
Susanne Elsen and Claudia Lintner, CASE team members from the Free University of Bolzano, informed visitors about CASE, its goals, current developments, and the next steps of the project.
