Description

On 25th June, PCRC Director Professor Graham Jeffery led an international seminar based on his ongoing AHRC/British Academy/GCRF funded work in Dharavi, Mumbai. A group of doctoral students, researchers, activists and NGO workers from Scotland, the USA and India convened in an online international workshop supported by the Scottish Graduate School for the Arts and Humanities. It examined current working conditions in Dharavi under the circumstances of the pandemic and also marked the first public screenings of two participatory documentary films made by young women working with community journalist Amol Lalzare as part of his residency at Compound 13 Lab. These can be viewed, alongside other materials related to the Compound 13 Lab project at https://www.compound13.org/amol-lalzare.
