Congratulations to Joshua Lipworth and Megan Laws (3rd Year Anthropology) who have won the world’s largest student film festival, the Campus MovieFest, leading to their film also being shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festivals Short Film Prize.

The academic year 2011/12 has been hugely positive for staff and students alike. The year started with four new lecturers joining us and it has ended with a further four new staff appointments who will join us at the start of the new academic year. Three of these new appointments are entirely new posts, a fact that is the best indication that our Department is thriving, able to provide a hugely vibrant atmosphere that assures excellence in teaching and learning. Newly appointed were also three members of the administrative team, enabling us to provide the very best service to our students and support to our staff.

Open City Docs Fest is a live festival devoted to exploring the world we live in through documentary film. Presenting films about real life, about the experience of real people many of whose voices are not otherwise heard, we challenge, explore and expand ideas of what documentary can be and do.

A graduate workshop organised by the UCL Anthropology CROC (Cosmology, Religion, Ontology and Culture) Research Group.

One-day workshop on the 26th of June at University College London
