“Dare to disrupt!”💥
- Eske Willerslev
It was a blast hosting Willerslev yesterday at @SyddanskUni for a powerful discussion on the *purpose* of research - and why #curiosity, #controversy, and #disruption drive real progress.

Flot artikel i @Globalnyt baseret på vores nylige seminar "Guinean gatherings: Mapping global inequalities in the microcosmos of Guinea-Bissau” på @DanishIAS - et seminar, der gav mange indsigter i landets udfordringer, som kan bruges som en linse til at forstå de store mønstre bag global ulighed.

Invitation for international seminar:
“Guinean Gatherings: Mapping global inequalities in the microcosmos of Guinea-Bissau”
Odense, 2 September 2025
@DanishIAS , SDU’s interdisciplinary elite research center dedicated to world-class, curiosity-driven research, aims to foster deeper understandings of “wicked problems”, i.e., societal issues that do not have any clear solutions and that call for multidisciplinary approaches.
The goal is not to offer simple solutions but to pave the way for interdisciplinary collaboration, new perspectives, and possibly scientific breakthroughs.
One such wicked problem is global inequality. The inequality between the global north and the global south spans all aspects of social and planetary life, and it is the immorality of the 21st century.
With a starting point in the SDU-Guinean field station #BandimHealthProject, the seminar “Guinean Gatherings” will unite researchers from DIAS, SDU, Guinea-Bissau, and beyond, to map global inequality in the microcosm of Guinea-Bissau.
The seminar is open for all. We warmly welcome anyone with an interest in knowing more about global inequality and Guinea-Bissau.
