Our media channels are filled with stories about economic trends, climate change, political power struggles, and global conflicts. But what else is happening on this planet? What critical realities remain hidden from our sight? What essential truths have been concealed from our minds?
The lecture series “Out of Sight, Out of Mind? – A Journey into the World’s Hidden Realities” aims to answer these questions by exposing the hidden dimensions. We invite you to explore the aspects of our world that deeply impact our environment, society, and future, but often remain unnoticed. There are various reasons why these topics remain unnoticed: some are simply invisible to the naked eye, like groundwater, microorganisms, and nanoplastics; others are overlooked by society, such as invasive species, wildlife diseases, and fungi. Then there are those activities intentionally kept out of the public view, like corruption, lobbyism, and illegal exploitation.
So, let’s use this Environmental Lecture Series to dig beneath the surface and uncover some of the world’s unseen realities. Let’s be stunned, engaged, and inspired to create an impact by our speakers and program. Because we don’t want to be left in the dark. Because it is important to know what is happening. Because we must keep these realities in mind and never lose sight of them.
