A need for diversity

An important topic is explored in this UCL Blog on the need for greater diversity within the geography subject community: teaching and student body alike.

Hafsa Garcia has been researching this topic for her Masters, and in this useful blog post she introduces some of her findings.


The blog piece was written along with Alex Standish, who works at UCL.

Hafsa also references work done by Becky Kitchen in this area for her PdD (PDF download)
