Description

Join us to celebrate one year of Research for Action.

How can research support grassroots movements? Can research be a tool for action? How can we avoid replicating oppressive structures such as class in our research work?

The co-operative Research for Action was set up a year ago to support campaigning for social, environmental and economic justice. This far, we have been focusing mainly on local authority finance and democracy. For this event, we want to bring together researchers, journalists and activists to discuss the relationship between research and action - and to celebrate our first anniversary!

The event will start with a panel discussion (speakers TBC soon), followed by interventions from the audience. After the discussion, there will be music and refreshments. Please join us!

Newspeak House is wheelchair accessible. If you have other access needs, please get in touch at info@researchforaction.uk.

Entry is free, but please register so we know how many people to expect.

Speakers:

Kam Sandhu - Journalist and Founder of Real Media, a journalist co-operative dedicated to public interest news
Sam Halvorsen - Lecturer in Human Geography at Queen Mary University of London, over the last 15 years he has participated in various social movements in the UK and Latin America
Focus E15 Campaign - housing campaign from East London
Joel Benjamin & Fanny Malinen - Research for Action
