Our next Research Café event is now scheduled for Friday 29th July, 12-2pm.

Current Presenter line-up:

Dr Carlo Avilio, PhD in Art History from the University of Warwick and Academic Liaison Librarian at Coventry University  – The role of art architecture in the process of cultural negotiation between the Spanish colonizers and indigenous communities in South America (16th-19th centuries)

Uroosa Mushtaq, PhD candidate in CTPSR – Discussing a critical approach to Intercultural Dialogue: An Insider perspective of dialogue in fragile non- western contexts

Uroosa’s presentation will discuss the extent to which models of dialogue developed for western contexts can be applied to non-western contexts. The presentation will focus on the regions of Jammu and Kashmir as a case study for dialogue. 

We do have space for a third presenter if anybody else is interested in presenting about their research.

To register as a presenter or audience member, please see: https://forms.office.com/r/rfSYyeQ7yr. (Anyone who registered for the postponed event on 15th June will automatically have the joining details sent to them nearer the time).

Depending on participant preferences, we are aiming for a hybrid set-up where participants can join online or in-person. The in-person part of the event, demand permitting, would be provided on the third floor of the Lanchester Library in the ‘Grass’ area. The online platform used would be Zoom. 

Call for Presenters:- 
If you would like to present please provide a title and short abstract for your presentation topic. We suggest presentations be approximately 20 minutes long, with a 10 minute audience Q&A at the end.  
Please note that we welcome ‘work in progress’ material which can discuss any aspect of research, whether it is at an early planning stage or whether results have been obtained and published.  
Whilst we give first priority to Postgraduate Researchers, we would also welcome presentations from academic staff, particularly early career researchers who wish to discuss their research. 
As the audience will be drawn from a range of backgrounds and disciplines, we advise that presenters provide some context to their research at the beginning of their presentation, including defining any technical vocabulary which may be unfamiliar to a non-specialist audience.
