The Witness Seminar: An Interdisciplinary Workshop
Date: 02 Jun - 02 Jun 2026

Venue: Galbraith Seminar Room, Trinity Long Room Hub
An interdisciplinary workshop for colleagues organised by the Department of Film.
In this workshop, experts in the witness seminar method from diverse disciplines come together for an exchange. Interdisciplinary testimonies on the pros and cons of the method will inform a potential new application of the method particularly in the Arts and Humanities.
In the framework of the TLRH Research Incentive Scheme, we are inviting all colleagues interested in the Witness Seminar to join us for a half-day interdisciplinary workshop on the method.
