The Provocateurs: The weakness of vulnerability / Should you trust anyone?

We like to think vulnerability deepens empathy. From TED talks to philosophy, we celebrate it as the key to empathy and courage. Dr Adrianna Zabrzewska (Edinburgh Napier University) explores what happens when vulnerability isn’t gentle or liberating but exploited for political gain.

What do we know about trust? Do we even need to trust anymore, when we can just look people up online or track their movements? Dr Michael Stirrat (Edinburgh Napier University) explores trust and relationships.

14+ must be accompanied by an adult. ALL SEATING IS UNRESERVED AND LATECOMERS MAY NOT BE ADMITTED
