Thanks (?) to Covid more and more conversations among researchers take place online, thus reducing the carbon footprint and making it practical for a much, much wider audience to participate. As well, when conversations are recorded for public playback, then future audiences can also search and discover the ideas found there.
The WCAA, together with the WAU (World Anthropologies Union), has hosted many of these scholarly online get-togethers, including October 2022 (Human Rights 1) and December 2022 (Human Rights 2, livestream on Dec. 14; upload to follow). The events are meant to bring anthropologists to engage is current issues, emerging problems, and perennial questions about understanding and communicating insights of human life on planet Earth.
