Dr Kamna Patelis an Associate Professor at The Bartlett Development Planning Unit and is The Bartlett’s – and UCL’s – first Vice-Dean for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. Throughout her appointment her aim is to move The Bartlett away from EDI’s “low-hanging fruit” and into space of long-term strategies to reform structures of how equality can be embedded within the university. In addition, Dr Patel is the co-curator and project lead of’Race’ and Space,a new curriculum that has been developed by The Bartlett, UCL Faculty of the Built Environment. It responds to a need for greater understanding of race and where and how it affects the built environment, and a demand for practical sources of support for teachers and learners.
