Race and Decolonisation
Wednesday 9 November 2022
4pm-6pm
STEM 3.1 and via Zoom for those based at our Loughton and Southend campuses
The aim of the CURE series is to bring researchers from across our three faculties (Faculty of Science and Health, Faculty of Arts and Humanities and Faculty of Social Sciences) together around a broad topic.
This CURE will delve into the subject of Race and Decolonisation, focusing on how the work of our researchers is delivering insights on racism in our society alongside the legacy of colonial systems, structures and relationships. We’ll also look at how research is helping people understand how to take action on these issues.
The speakers will make three-minute presentations on their research connected with this topic, followed by networking.
