Renowed cognitive scientist, philosopher of biology and author of Planta Sapiens, Paco Calvo, is coming to Athens for a public lecture on plant intelligence and emerging approaches to the relationship between humans, technology and living systems.
The event will take place on Thursday, 18 June 2026, at 19:00, at the National Museum of Natural History Goulandris. It is organised in the context of the 3rd The Lyceum Project, which will be held on 19–20 June at the Athens Conservatoire under the theme: Entangled Intelligence: Animate. Ancestral. Artificial.
The National Centre for Scientific Research “Demokritos”, the World Human Forum and the National Museum of Natural History Goulandris invite the public to an engaging encounter with a pioneering thinker whose work explores forms of intelligence beyond traditional human- and brain-centred perspectives.
The event will be introduced by Alexandra Mitsotaki, President and Co-founder of the World Human Forum.
