Join Southampton Institute for Arts and Humanities (SIAH) on Tuesday 1 June at 14:00 for the third webinar in the series Reset 2021: Policy, Practice and the Arts. This series examines key policy challenges of the post-2020 world, exploring the role of arts and humanities in contributing evidence to assist in making complex policy decisions.
The third webinar, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in the Creative, Cultural and Heritage Sectors, brings policymakers and academics together to ask:
- How do reflections on equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in the creative, cultural and heritage sectors contribute to telling us about wider societal phenomena and what questions do we still need to ask?
- How, through different media, can we use evidence and data in new ways to encourage informed public debate?
Panellists will consider how far the sectors have come, where they’re at and what they might possibly do next in the pursuit of equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in the creative, cultural and heritage sectors.
SIAH is honoured to welcome Melanie Hoyes (Industry Inclusion Executive, British Film Institute) and Tiger de Souza MBE (People Engagement Director at the National Trust) to its panel. Academic panellists include Dr Anamik Saha (Goldsmiths, University of London) and Pascal Matthias (Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton).
The webinar will be chaired by Dr Shelley Cobb, University of Southampton.
