Description

Social Anthropology is a discipline with a long-standing history of strong debates surrounding the question of how research should be communicated. This dispute has intensified even more over the last decade, with an ever-growing concern for open access and public engagement. This series of ten
two-hour long workshops has been tailored to the unique needs of doctoral researchers in Social Anthropology by the accomplished author and creative writing tutor Dr. Mackenzie. Each workshop will provide the students with the skills necessary to engage effectively with audiences outside the academia through the practice of creative writing. Simultaneously, the workshops will equip the students with those transferable skills that allow the students to grow as writers, thus ultimately strengthening the overall quality of the body of work produced by the doctoral researchers in the
Department.
