Without a doubt, significant contemporary global and societal issues are forcing universities to re-examine their curricula to ensure students are prepared to meet the challenges of today’s world. But in these novel configurations of interdisciplinarity, what role does humanistic inquiry play? Join us for a conversation with author and scholar Ato Quayson, who will share his innovative vision of interdisciplinarity in higher education and how this has shaped his teaching and research in African urban studies. Dr. Quayson’s re-thinking of interdisciplinarity from a humanistic and interpretive perspective offers a unique approach to building a truly inclusive and holistic university curriculum for the 21st century.
