...Applications for the Junior Scholar Colloquium is now open for the university’s PhD students working on planetary projects to gain a unique opportunity to present their dissertation projects in a transdisciplinary setting and to engage in dialogue with internationally renowned scholars and artists whose work contribute to the burgeoning field of planetary thinking.

For three days, the participating scholars will get a hands-on exploration of how relations—between humans, nonhumans, and planetary forces—can serve as the ground for future forms of politics. Through conceptual experimentation, artistic exploration, and academic exchange, participants will collaboratively open pathways towards enduring human-planet relations.

Selected participants will join the full conference program from 18-20 November 2025. They will be hosted free of charge by the Panel, which includes transportation from Giessen to Castle Rauischholzhausen, full board, and accommodation in single rooms of the castle’s guest house.
