Cultural Awareness Workshop
In 2022, the European and International Social and Political Studies department (EISPS) organized the first workshop on how to best support Chinese students at UCL by sharing our experience as lecturers, administrators, speakers of Chinese and researchers of China. A second workshop took place in May 2023. Our intention remains to contribute to work by dedicated UCL teams by running yearly workshops and finding new ways to share our experience, amplify the student voice and give space to excellent research done here at UCL by our own doctoral students. UCL staff can access the recording, slides and additional resources via a dedicated Moodle page.
