Decolonising the Curriculum

In 2020 the Department agreed a Statement on Decolonising Anthropology. Our work on Decolonising the Curriculum is led by a working group chaired by Dr Trudi Buck and Dr Jed Stephenson.

In October 2021 we began teaching a Decolonising Anthropology module for our third years to encourage critical reflection on the legacies of colonialism for the practices and theories of different sub-disciplines of Anthropology and to co-produce practical strategies for decolonising Anthropology.  Dr Jordan Mullard and Prof Nayanika Mookherjee are prominent in the university’s BAME Network.
