Professor Catterall is a British academic historian who, since 2016, has been Professor of History and Policy at the University of Westminster. Her research has focused on twentieth-century history and politics, the mass media, conflict studies and nationalism. She is also Chair of the Aids Memory UK of which Ash Kotak came to talk to us in July last year.
She will speak about Public Spaces and her project “Queering Public Spaces”.
Public spaces are not always, well, public. In this talk Professor Pippa Catterall will share the findings of her current research with Arup into how the built environment can be designed to produce more inclusive, welcoming and safer public spaces for all.
Read more about “Queering Public Spaces” on https://gaypronet.blogspot.com/2024/01/queering-public-spaces.html and please answer the survey on the top left corner.
