Professor Alison Phipps in conversation with Revd Dr Peter Matheson
Wednesday 29 January 2020, 7.30pm
Mornington Methodist Church
Corner of Galloway and Whitby Streets
Dunedin
Please join us and the Mornington Methodist Church as we co-host a conversation with Professor Alison Phipps about her time in Dunedin as the De Carle Distinguished Fellow, working with us in the city and in Aotearoa New Zealand to think about Refugee Integration through Languages and the Arts. Alison’s work has taken her all over the country during her visit, not least as the quota is doubled, and new resettlement programmes are in play. With a wide range of experience as an academic and activist working with UNESCO, and previously with the World Council of Churches, Alison will be in conversation with the Revd Dr Peter Matheson to share from her experiences and best wisdom during these times of great global concern.
