On Tuesday April 25th morning, from 10:30 to 12:00 we will have a session at Gaia 6 for interested PhDs to talk with Edward Huijbens about his work on landscape and tourism and the Anthropocene. There will be plenty of time for questions and free discussions on how these link to our own research.

Please read the introduction and conclusion from the book Tourism and the Anthropocene (you can access it online through the WUR library). You can contact Trista Chih-Chen Lin for the other readings:
