TA36 – UNESCO

from Talking Anthropology Hosted by Thomas Lohninger

Die UNESCO ist wahrscheinlich die bekannteste Unterorganisation der vereinten Nationen. Oft als das Gehirn der UN oder Welt-Kultusministerium bezeichnet, gibt es viel Halbwissen über sie und ihre weltweiten Aktivitäten. Mein heutiger Gast Christoph Brumann hat Feldforschung in der "Arena" der UNESCO betrieben und organisierte einen Workshop im Rahmen der DGV Tagung. Themen: * die UNESCO * Konvention zum materiellen und immateriellen Kulturerbe * Entscheidungsfindung in der UNESCO * Lokale Auswirkungen des Globalen Kulturstatus auf Nationalstaaten und betroffene Regionen * Brumanns Feldforschung in der Arena der UNESCO * der Kulturbegriff in der UNESCO und seine Kritik * Das Problem mit Definitionen in Konventionen * der Kulturbegriff in der Anthropologie und auf der DGV Tagung * der amtliche Kulturbegriff * der Workshop zur UNESCO auf der DGV Tagung * Begriffswandel in der Anthropologie/Ethnologie/Völkerkunde "Da Kriege im Geist der Menschen entstehen, muss auch der Frieden im Geist der Menschen verankert werden."

Robinson Megan J. Robinson Welcome to People Watching, a podcast where we figure out what it looks like to become the role model we’ve always wanted by talking with real people who've found real role models in their own lives. Together, we cut through all the noise and identify better sources of hope, creativity, and wisdom as we explore how we learn to make decisions about the kind of life we want to live. So join us! Let's do some people watching. meganjrobinson.substack.com The Future Of Work Collective Podcast Lucy Mundy Work isn't working anymore. The dissatisfaction people felt with the modern workplace was exacerbated by the pandemic, and nobody wants to be worse off after enjoying new freedoms and flexibilities. But bosses want people back in the office. Workers are striking for fairer conditions. Trust in staff is at an all time low. Economic pressures are in danger of pushing diversity, equity, and inclusion down the employment agenda. Bullying and stress are rife. We can't carry on like this. We need your help. Whether you're a cashier in Blackburn, an HR manager in Thurrock, or a farmer on Shetland - we need to listen to everyone about what the future of work should look like. This is a collective of people from different backgrounds, some of whom are experts in talking about work, and all of whom care about finding positive solutions. On our podcast, we discuss how we take action now to make work better for everyone.
