Summary
How do we exist together - with humans holding opposing views, with other species, or within shared but contested spaces? While co-existence suggests harmony, it often unfolds through tension, negotiation, and exclusion. This conference explores who or what is allowed to exist, on what terms, and at whose expense, challenging us to rethink the very boundaries of being.
