Upcoming Events

This webinar will explore the growing movement of Health Equity 'Marmot Places' and how they are driving local action to tackle health inequalities.

Professor Sir Michael Marmot and Dr. Jessica Allen from the UCL Institute of Health Equity will discuss the current state of health inequalities, the rationale behind Marmot Places, and their structure and impact.

Join us for a day of discussions and presentations where we will explore health and social care from early years to older age. 

You'll hear from leading experts in academia, the health sector and beyond. This is a unique opportunity to network, gain new perspectives, and be part of the conversation.

How Data-Driven Science Transforms Lives: Spotlight on Water Security:
Learn how Professor Shams’ research evolved from geoscience and physical geography to tackling water crises and risk reduction. This lecture will highlight key moments that shaped his work, focusing on his data-driven research in groundwater science, particularly in Bangladesh.

Following on from successful meetings in 2023 and 2024, the aims of this year’s meeting are to raise awareness about the risks of climate change for the brain and neurological healthcare, to nurture global collaborative research, and to promote action against climate change and foster adaptation strategies. The meeting is jointly organised by UCL and The Lancet Neurology.

This exhibition explores how eugenics marginalised voices and created structural inequalities which still impact us today. Taking a critical look at UCL’s historical ties to eugenics, it also explores a parallel but untold story of resistance and dissent.

The exhibition showcases the outputs of the Prejudice in Power programme, through which communities marginalised by eugenic thinking had the opportunity to respond creatively to UCL’s eugenics legacy. Works produced include artworks, zines, social media content, film and performance pieces.
