Equitable Partnerships in Research: towards a more equal culture

Thursday 23rd October, 12pm - 1pm

Professor Mariangela Palladino will explore the notion of equitable and sustainable partnerships in the context of global research as an essential component of research culture and environment. Drawing on data from an AHRC-funded project (SASA), she will examine principles and practices for equitable partnerships. Furthermore, she will argue that these can offer a transformative approach to enhancing research culture towards more ethical, inclusive, and enduring relations in the processes of knowledge generation.

Mariangela Palladino is a Professor of Postcolonial and Cultural Studies; Dean of Research, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at Keele University. With an established academic profile in postcolonial and cultural studies, her interest and expertise include migration, qualitative and creative methods, development research, sustainable and equitable partnerships in global research, indigenous and ancestral knowledges. Mariangela has led several international projects funded by the AHRC, ESRC, and the British Council. She has established a number of cross-sector, research partnerships between the UK, North Africa and Brazil; working with the FCDO and the British Council, she has led on the first UK-Morocco dual PhD programme working with five universities in Morocco. Mariangela previously held teaching and research positions at the Universities of Glasgow, Edinburgh and Coimbra (Portugal) and is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.

Those signed up to the NCRC mailing list will automatically be invited to attend.
