Event Details : 'Yamuna.Elbe - Contemporary flows, fluid times' Seminar.
Yamuna and Elbe – two rivers in two cities that share an interconnected future. River ecologies have been cradles of civilization and some of the most vibrant cities in the world lie along them. Today as local interconnectivities become more global, contesting views of the river, predicated on technology and capital have emerged. Rivers are increasingly seen as mere water channels, or even real estate. New threats of climate change have complicated the challenge.
Goethe-Institut / Max Mueller Bhavan is hosting a 2 day seminar on rivers. The event is an attempt to rethink of the river as an 'ecology,' using not only science and technology, but also the poetics of our imaginaries.
