PARI-c Exhibition

On 1st July 2022, at City University of London, will be held an audio-visual exhibition of the Indigenous Peoples responding to Covid-19 in Brazil: social arrangements in a Global Health emergency (PARI-c) research project. In this occasion the short film “Ours spirits keep coming” (Nhe’e kuery jogueru teri) will be presented and discussed by the Guarani-Mbyá Indigenous filmmaker Kuaray Ariel Ortega and the anthropologist Bruno Huyer, both coming from Brazil especially for this event. Professor Valéria Macedo, from Federal University of São Paulo, will also be in the event and along with Dr. Maria Paula Prates will talk about the co-laborative research process between indigenous and non-indigenous people.

In case you are curious about PARI-c research project, you can find further information here: http://www.pari-c.org/

PARI-c was generously funded by Medical Research Council (MRC) and Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)/UKRI.

The event will start at 3pm and will be followed by a confraternization. The idea is to have an informal, friendly and networking occasion. You are all warmly welcome!
