The Coordination belgo-palestinienne namuroise (CNBP), in partnership with PAC Namur and FUCID, is pleased to invite you to a conference by Alain Gresh, French journalist, former editor-in-chief of Le Monde diplomatique, founder of the online journals Orient XXI and Afrique XXI, and specialist in the Middle East and more particularly the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. On this occasion, he will present the contents of his latest book: Palestine, un peuple qui ne veut pas mourir.What is at stake in the war against Gaza goes far beyond the narrow confines of this small territory, which is experiencing one of the most destructive wars of contemporary times - a war whose "genocidal risk" has been underlined by the International Court of Justice. The fighting has already spread to nearby areas, Iran's involvement threatens to transform the scale of the conflict, and the West's support for Israel reinforces the Israeli far-right's rhetoric of a "war of civilization".Refer registration via nam.palestine@gmail.com

The concerns of scientists, ecologists and philosophers about the societal, ethical and environmental challenges of digital technology are numerous.

Another history of the connected world", a thorough and meticulous investigation around the mining industry and the hidden face of the digital world.Far from a conference or a lecture, this is a convivial and participative moment to share thoughts and questions on this subject.We invite you to listen to the podcast (available soon) before this meeting via this link...RegistrationsLimited number of places and lunch offered: registration for Monday March 17 before 3pm, to valerie.tilman@fucid-unamur.be.

His long-term collaboration with Dr. Aniruddha Chatterjee recently resulted in the first collaborative framework agreement between the University of Otago and UNamur, as well as an international Erasmus+ (EU) credit mobility funding this scientific mission. Frédéric Silvestre deepened his understanding of the advanced DNA methylation techniques employed by Dr. Chatterjee's team, including their bioinformatics workflows and innovative approach to epigenetic editing. He has given several seminars presenting LEAP's research on mangrove rivulus and turquoise molefish. He also presented at the Australasian Epigenetic Alliance conference and had the opportunity to explore potential new collaborations with other departments, including zoology, sustainable development, chemistry and marine sciences.
