SUMMARY:AI\, Cultural Diversity and Sustainability Walk into a Bar: What happens when a more diverse world meets increasingly uniform ways of knowing?
DESCRIPTION:AI\, Cultural Diversity and Sustainability Walk into a Bar: What happens when a more diverse world meets increasingly uniform ways of knowing? \nProfessor: Cristina Cruz (cristinac@eselx.ipl.pt) \nDate: 9 December\, 11h-13h CET \nOnline \nFor lecturers\, researchers\, and administrative professional \nContent\nCan a society become increasingly culturally diverse while also becoming increasingly uniform in the ways it produces\, accesses and circulates knowledge? And what would that mean for social sustainability? \nThis session explores the tension between cultural diversity and the increasing concentration of the systems through which knowledge is produced\, accessed and circulated. Drawing on the idea that cultural diversity can function as a reservoir of alternative ways of understanding and solving unforeseen problems\, it asks what happens when increasingly diverse societies rely on increasingly concentrated systems of knowledge — particularly artificial intelligence. \nThe session explores several dimensions in which AI may contribute to increasingly uniform ways of knowing\, including language\, knowledge\, concepts\, representation\, and the range of solutions or futures that become easier to imagine. \nAt the same time\, AI may also create new possibilities: lowering barriers to information\, supporting translation and education\, and potentially making minority languages and knowledge systems more visible and accessible. \nThe session invites participants to explore where AI may contribute to increasingly uniform ways of knowing\, under what conditions this may happen\, and if AI might instead support cultural diversity. The discussion ultimately asks what increasingly uniform ways of knowing might mean for social sustainability in increasingly diverse societies. \nLearning Objectives\n\nDevelop a critical understanding of the relationship between cultural diversity\, ways of knowing and social sustainability.\nExplore how increasingly uniform ways of knowing may emerge in increasingly diverse societies.\nExamine the risks and possibilities of artificial intelligence for cultural diversity and the ways knowledge is produced\, accessed and circulated.\nConnect conceptual perspectives with concrete examples from education and society.\nReflect on the conditions under which AI may support cultural diversity rather than contribute to increasingly uniform ways of knowing.\n\n Outcomes\n\nDiscuss the relationship between cultural diversity\, ways of knowing and social sustainability.\nIdentify ways in which increasingly uniform ways of knowing may emerge in culturally diverse societies.\nAnalyse how AI may both contribute to increasingly uniform ways of knowing and support access to diverse languages\, knowledge and perspectives.\nApply the concepts discussed to concrete examples from education and society.\nReflect on the conditions under which AI may support cultural diversity rather than contribute to increasingly uniform ways of knowing.

SUMMARY:HOGENT Week Without Borders 2027
DESCRIPTION:During this week\, students are encouraged to step outside the boundaries of their own study programme and engage with new perspectives. Through creative\, curriculum-based activities\, they collaborate with other study programmes\, research centres\, professional organisations\, or international partner institutions to explore and address societal challenges together. We warmly welcome you to contribute to an activity \nFrom March 24-26\, all international partners are also invited to take part in the international partner programme: a varied programme offering opportunities to discover HOGENT\, exchange ideas and connect with colleagues and partners from around the world. \nTwo ways to participate (combination is possible) \n\nContribute to an activity\n\nAre you a lecturer or researcher interested in contributing to an activity\, for example a guest lecture or workshop? We warmly invite you to submit your proposal through our registration form until the end of October. We will explore whether we can connect you with a suitable study programme that can host your activity and develop it together with you. Already in touch with a HOGENT colleague and/or agreed on an activity together? Then there is no need to complete the form. Need inspiration? Have a look at the activities of last years edition. \n\nJoin our international partner programme\n\nThe international partner programme\, coordinated by the International Office\, is open to all international partners\, whether you are contributing to an activity during Week Without Borders or not. And those who have joined us before will know that our partners are warmly invited to a memorable dinner in the heart of Ghent on Thursday evening! \nWe are currently putting together the partner programme and are doing our utmost to offer a varied selection with something for everyone.
