Then join our Big Tent! series to see the world and the challenges it faces in new ways.

Big Tent! Live Events! began in April 2020 as an online event series as part of the Humanities Cultural Programme. You can join the events live on the TORCH YouTube channel. Details of the themes and live events will be posted on our newsletter and social media channels – sign up to stay in the know and to send your questions to the researchers. Each event will also be recorded and added to the website to view at a later date.
Come into our Big Tent, open your mind, and listen to great minds at work as they discuss the big ideas that shape our present and will define our future.
