Transforming Cities Initiatives events

30 Sep 2010

Meetings taking place during October for interested members of staff

Interested in how cities work as places of policy, culture, governance, creativity, disparity or everyday life? Currently undertaking 'urban' research?

Then this series of meetings might be of interest to you. They are organised by the Transforming Cities Initiative (TCI) in the Faculty of Humanities.

The aim is to build on all the excellent 'urban' work that is already taking place across the University, using the Initiative to raise the profile of this research and to develop new areas of cross-disciplinary interaction.

The meetings are taking place as follows:

·         6 October 1pm–2pm Migration in the City, Arthur Lewis Building 2.017

·         11 October 1pm-2pm Urban Restructuring, Arthur Lewis Building G.030/31

·         13 October 1pm-2pm Urban Cultures, Arthur Lewis Building 2.016

·         18 October 1pm-2pm Urban Environments, Arthur Lewis Building 2.016/2.017
