On my live sessions, I develop interesting topics. For example, I have hosted a recent live session in which I argue: 'Do men lose power from equality with women?' Check this out and let me know your thoughts.

WHAT IF THE WAY WE LIVE IS THE REAL RESEARCH QUESTION?
Season 3 of The Solomon Atah Podcast is now underway, and the live conversations are getting bigger, sharper and more uncomfortable.
We are bringing researchers, academics and thinkers into conversations that move beyond the university and into real life.
The questions we are exploring include:What does what researchers know mean for the way we live?Who controls knowledge, belonging and language?
Are universities ready for the world they are preparing people for?
Why does African sovereignty remain such a difficult question?
What happens when technology can manufacture reality?
Who benefits from the way knowledge is produced, communicated and controlled?
And perhaps the most important question:What are we supposed to DO with what we know?
This is not a lecture.
It is a conversation about knowledge, power, society, technology, identity, Africa, education, sovereignty, research and the future.
And we want YOU in the conversation.Before the next livestream, tell us:Which question should researchers be answering that nobody is asking?
Drop your question in the comments.Join us LIVE, challenge the ideas, ask questions and bring your perspective.
