North/South. Work, cultures, utopias

This chair focuses on interdisciplinary research around “work utopias,” addressing the themes of agricultural and artistic labor in the contexts of Northern and Southern Europe. The proposed approach aims to encourage the emergence of innovative models, based on cooperation, interaction, and the recognition of the various stakeholders involved.

Any interested artist and/or scientist may apply for only one position among those offered above. Applicants who are former Iméra residents may reapply at least 5 years after their initial research stay.

Transdisciplinarity and Complex Systems
