Wuppertal Zoo Talks start again
Click on the poster: Larger version
Two lectures are planned per semester, which will address current scientific findings and socially relevant issues from the fields of animal ecology, ethology, sustainability, nature education and species conservation. The events offer space for exchange and discussion between science and the interested public.
A new organisational team has been formed for the resumption of the Zoo Talks: Prof. Dr. Gela Preisfeld (Zoology and Didactics of Biology), Prof. Dr.-Ing. Peter Gust (Vice-Rector for Third Mission and International Affairs) and Prof. Dr. Gerald Hartung (Philosophy) will be responsible for the content and organisation of the series in future.
Further information
The Zoo Talks have already proven themselves as an established format of the University of Wuppertal in cooperation with Wuppertal Zoo from 2012 to 2024. They combine scientific perspectives from primatology, anthropology and related disciplines with a broad public discussion in the special setting of the zoo.
