Spotlight on... Dr Maki Kimura

This week we meet Dr Maki Kimura, Lecturer (Teaching) in Gender and Politics in the Department of Political Science. Here, Maki chats to us about her work in various EDI roles and her current research looking into how war memorials construct memories of war. What is your role and what does it involve?. My time is split between two departments, Political Science and Arts and Sciences. In the Department of Political Science, I teach modules on gender and politics, and have recently been appointed as a staff lead for the BAME staff-student network. This involves collaborating with the student lead and other Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) network leads to promote equality, diversity and inclusion in the department. As for Arts and Sciences, together with my colleague, I put on student engagement events and also assist the director in developing the EDI strategies of the department (on top of seminar teaching and dissertation supervision!).
