Save Kendeng at the Museum of Nature and Humanity: A Lecture on Resistance, Water, and Responsibility

On Tuesday, June 23, 2026, the Museum of Nature and Humanity in Freiburg will focus on a highly relevant topic: the threatened Kendeng Karst Mountains in Indonesia. The lecture Save Kendeng – Resistance for Water, Land, and Life connects scientific perspectives, societal relevance, and impressive insights into local protest movements.

An Evening Between Research and Global Responsibility

With Prof. Dr. Michaela Haug from the Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology at the University of Freiburg and Janty Jie from Watch Indonesia, two voices come together to illuminate the topic from different angles. The focus is on the resistance of local communities against encroachments on their livelihoods – a lecture that not only informs but also provokes thought.

A Setting That Matches the Topic

As part of the special exhibition Completely Unfair!, the evening fits harmoniously into the museum's event experience. The atmosphere in the Museum of Nature and Humanity provides a focused, factual framework where audience mood and readiness for discussion can flourish. The limited space capacity of 50 people additionally makes the event personal and approachable.

Compact, Accessible, and Free of Charge

Admission is free; however, those who wish to attend should arrive early, as no further entry will be allowed once capacity is reached. The lecture will begin at 7:00 PM and is expected to end around 8:30 PM. Thanks to barrier-free accessibility, the evening is suitable for a wide audience interested in global justice, environmental issues, and cultural scientific perspectives.

Conclusion: Anyone seeking an enlightening evening with current content, a clear stance, and a special museum atmosphere should experience this lecture live. Save Kendeng promises context, emotion, and material for discussion beyond the evening.
