In November 2022, Danish colleagues Line Nielsen, Charlotte Bjerre Meilstrup and Malene Kubstrup Nelausen (pictured with Dr Elena Riva and Dr Lorenzo Serini) visited IATL to observe and contribute to the in-classroom module 'Understanding Wellbeing Theory and Practice', which will also be replicated at the University of Copenhagen and to discuss the project evaluation and next steps.

IATL was pleased to welcome students from the Indonesian International Mobility Awards (IISMA) scheme this autumn. IISMA is a student mobility scheme funded by the Indonesian government.

We are delighted to announce that the University has concluded an appointment process for our next Director and that Dr Elena Riva has been approved by the Committee on the Appointment of Heads of Department to succeed Professor Jonny Heron.

If you are looking for resources to support student wellbeing, the positive digital practices project has been busy co-creating resources which are now ready for evaluation. Working with CLL Students, resources supporting mature, part time or commuter students have been created. Take a look at our outputs, see what we have to offer and let us know what you think!

The Reclaim Project was recently funded by IATL and is a collective of poets and creatives of black heritage within the University. Earlier this month the project team released their first poetry anthology titled, 'On Blackness and Belonging', comprised of poetry from talented writers. The book chronicles the black experience first-hand, encompassing and creatively reconsidering the idea of black fracture and challenging monolithic discourses of blackness within academia. It is definitely a must read.
