Why Anthropology in Schools Matters

Why does anthropology belong in schools? At a time when young people are navigating an increasingly complex and unequal world, anthropology offers tools for critical thinking, empathy, careful listening, and imaginative ways of understanding society.

This event brings together secondary school and college students, teachers, and anthropologists to celebrate anthropology in pre-university education and to explore its impact. This is a chance to hear directly from students about their work, discover how anthropology is being taught in classrooms, and take part in a lively discussion about education, culture, and the future of the discipline.

The event is open to students, educators, parents, and members of the public interested in education, culture, and social change.
