Sheffield Otherwise: Counter-mapping Living Heritage of Diaspora and Queer Communities
This year, due to the ongoing Covid-19 outbreak, the DPU decided to stay in the UK for the MSc Practice Engagements. For this reason, the BUDD Programme has partnered with Resolve Collective, and through them an alliance with several local organisations in Sheffield such as Sadacca and Gut Level has been created to conduct the 21/22 Fieldtrip.
