Event Details
Panel description: The sciences and the arts represent two complementary dimensions of knowledge that can converse and converge with one another to generate continually evolving knowledge that is greater than the sum of its parts. This panel will explore ways to integrate the objective and subjective dimensions of knowledge by harnessing insights from philosophy, art, history, literature, music, cinema, and other forms of the humanities to foster human security.
