“The foundation and maintenance of [LSHTM] were made possible through the forced labour and financial exploitation of colonised subjects”
BMJ article on the history of London’s school of #TropicalMedicine, which is now taking important steps to confront its legacy and decolonise its curriculum
Presented at Royal Sussex County Hospital on my (Brighton and Sussex Medical School) work with forest communities in #papuanewguinea co-planning & introducing health services into indigenous-led conservation collaborations: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11625-020-00805-x. The tool-kit we developed for combined clinical and rapid anthropological assessments with parallel treatment of urgent cases is available free for wider use ( https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/10/10/e041784) & I am always happy to chat with people who may find the methodologies we developed helpful in their own work.
Thanks go out to my amazing group of interdisciplinary co-investigators from institutions in the UK, PNG, & Czech Republic: Jackie Cassell, Gavin Colthart, Francesca Dem, James Fairhead, Michael Head, Dr Moses Laman, Hayley MacGregor, Vojtech Novotny, Mika Peck, Willie Pomuat, João Inácio, Steve Walker, & Alan J Stewart.
