This Research Night is about exploring the necessary steps to develop a regenerative economy, or ‘zoönomy’, that supports all life. Two experts present their practice and discuss them with each other and the participating audience .

Nieuwe Instituut Zoöp is located in the middle of a surprisingly biodiverse environment. How many mosses, birds, moths and other plants and animals can you observe if you record every living thing for 24 or 48 hours?

Join Detour Guide Erik Peters and discover the exhibitions from the perspective of Zoöp: an organisational model for cooperation between human and nonhuman life.
