How to submit your abstract
The Cape Horn International Center (CHIC) opens the call for submissions of oral presentations and posters for the 3rd International Conference, to be held from May 12 to 15, 2025, in Puerto Williams.
The Cape Horn International Center studies the biological and social factors that determine biocultural homogenization, while also promoting the revaluation of local knowledge through its research lines. Thus, CHIC proposes a reflection that articulates interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary knowledge and questions, bringing together ecology, social sciences, education, humanities, and local knowledge.
To address these aspects in depth, CHIC will hold its Third International Conference: “Philosophies, Education, and Ethics for Biocultural Conservation” in Puerto Williams from May 12 to 15, 2025.
The southernmost city in the world will serve as a meeting point for students, researchers, and the general public to share experiences and advances in their research, aiming to contribute theoretical and practical reflections that shift paradigms and imaginaries, thereby advancing the biocultural conservation of territories and the planet as a whole.
Poster sessions will last approximately 1 hour, during which each presenter must be available to answer attendees’ questions.
