Join us at this one-day programme focused on the anthropological community’s expertise and vision: our critical engagements with making futures and with futures past; our inquiries into anthropological agency, its prospects and reflections; the unconventional connections and potential for anthropologies for the future in Leiden.
We will come together as a community of Leiden anthropologists to share what we are and what we know. Whether you are (or were) working, studying, collaborating at CADS, or are connected to CADS in any way - you're welcome!

Plenary Sessions
The conference begins and concludes with a plenary session in which various speakers share their own perspectives and connections with anthropology.
The conference kicks off with a word of welcome by our Scientific Director and short pitches by alumni, a member of our advisory board and our dean followed by a Q&A.
The conference concludes with a roundtable where our current students and alumni from various cohorts share their vision for the future of anthropology.
Parellel Panels
The first five panels are each divided into two sessions - a morning session from 11:30-13:00 and an afternoon session from 14:00-15:30. The sixth panel (collaborators in the field) has one morning session.
Everyday Infrastructures
Our LDE PortCityFutures Directore Carola Hein will coordinate the roundtable and workshop, answering the following questions: How do anthropologists collaborate with other disciplines? How do academics collaborate with non-academics? How do multimodality, sensory ethnography, and participatory research design enable that?
This panel is focussed on themes that are central to our Thematic Research Group "Everyday Infrastructures".
