On May 13 at 1:30 PM, Dr. John Paul Catungal, assistant professor in the Institute for Gender, Race, Sexuality and Social Justice at the University of British Columbia, will give a special presentation in honour of Asian Heritage Month.

In this free, public event, Dr. Catungal will draw from his interdisciplinary Asian Canadian research, teaching and public engagement practice to articulate the value of critical scholarship “for our communities, by our communities”. Such engaged scholarly practices, in direct partnership with equity-deserving communities, has much to contribute to how we understand the public role of the university today, including what our responsibilities are as institutional actors and how we might forge more ethical and meaningful relationships with broader publics.
