Can going ‘wild’ help us to tackle the climate and biodiversity crisis? Meet some of the UK’s foremost thinkers, writers, activists and influencers to find out how people across the globe are rethinking their relationship with the natural world.
Wild Talks is a series of public lectures hosted by Manchester Museum, in collaboration with the University of Manchester, that will delve even deeper into some of the issues raised by our new exhibition, Wild. Issues that often have an unseen, yet powerful, impact on our daily lives.
This series is part of the University’s support for lifelong, flexible learning, aimed at supporting people’s aspirations and learning needs at every stage of their lives. Through public leactures, we aim to provide access to a Manchester education for all.

As one of the UK’s largest university museums, we care for over 4.5 million objects, with an internationally-important collection spanning from Archaeology to Zoology, and nearly everything in between. We work with communities, support university students and schools in Manchester and beyond and we are a free, inclusive museum for all. But we need your help. Every object we care for, exhibition, school visit and community event comes at a cost, and you can help make the museum as ambitious and impactful as possible.
