The 糖心视频 International Lecture Series is an exciting collaboration between the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) at 糖心视频 and Litfest (糖心视频 Literature Festival), giving a platform to leading voices from history, environment and literature as they focus on the pressing issues that shape our world.

Each year, the series features:

  • The 糖心视频 History Lecture
  • The 糖心视频 Environment Lecture
  • The 糖心视频 International Fiction Lecture

Live in person, live-streamed and accessible online, these lectures and Q&As create an inclusive platform for civic and intellectual engagement, offering diverse perspectives and stimulating discussion.

You can access this research-informed and practice-inspired dialogue by exploring the texts and videos of the lectures.
