The AFTER THE END research project is an eight-year collaboration bringing together researchers from around the world. Its principal focus is what happens in the aftermaths of global health crises, but what do endings look like in other contexts? Do cultural perspectives influence our perception of time? Does time exist?
In this series, presented by PATRICIA KINGORI, Professor of Global Health Ethics at the UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD and lead investigator for AFTER THE END, we explore endings and their aftermaths - who decides when an ‘end’ has been reached, whether ‘the end’ for one person is the end for everybody, and what happens after these so-called ends?
The series grew out of the AFTER THE END launch workshop in Oxford in July 2024. PATRICIA KINGORI had brought together a group of people from very different disciplines – all experts in their own fields – to explore the concept of endings. The discussions were fascinating and thought-provoking, and this podcast series captures some of them.
We hope you enjoy listening.
