I am now delighted to report to you that the Centre for Global Health Histories I built between 2010 & 2022 has transferred over to the @UniversityLeeds. The website is now live, thanks to help from our exceptionally helpful colleague, Dr. Joanna Phillips: ahc.leeds.ac.uk/dir-record/r…

As many of you know, I moved to work in the @UniversityLeeds in Sept. 2022. All my partnerships with the @WHO & national governments did so too (& this collaborative work was greatly enriched by the involvement of talent across @LeedsUniAHC & as well as across @UniversityLeeds.
Emma Tomalin retweeted
As Head of @LeedsUniHistory, I am focussed on many administrative duties & some research cum engagement work with @WHO and @UN partners. The day-to-day direction of CGHH will lie elsewhere, in the capable hands of Professor Emma Tomalin, Professor Shane Doyle and Dr. Kat Rawling.

I will remain involved as an advisory board member, along with many wonderful colleagues, which includes our Executive Dean, Professor @AndrewThorpe4; several fellow Heads (Professor @JoanneCrawford & Professor @jpitches68) & Dr. Papiya Mazumdar (POLIS/Social Sciences).
Emma Tomalin retweeted
Several other academic colleagues within History and other AHC Schools have joined – I am sure many more people from across this great University will join us, as will a range of external academic and policy partners.

So emotionally charged and yet so imprecise. My latest piece for @rapplerdotcom reflects on blasphemy, the latest national controversy. #Opinion

"Blasphemy is an emotionally charged word. But it’s often imprecise. At its core is religious offense, that something about one’s religious sensibilities was deeply offended. That’s where it begins and that’s where it also ends." #Opinion #Voices trib.al/BfAleSk

Forging worthwhile partnerships is one reason I value our work in the Office of the Assoc Dean for Research and Creative Work. This time it’s with @UniversityLeeds. Exciting possibilities ahead, including research collabs, joint teaching, and student mobility. 🙌🏽 – at Quezon City, National Capital Region

What’s the role of researchers in conflict contexts? How does one call out religion if it enables violence? Speaking before engaged students, Prof Emma Tomalin and Dr Theo Mbazumutima inspired a series of critical questions about faith-based peacebuilding. ☮️
