Our annual Creative Writing Research Symposium — typically hosting a keynote speaker and three of our current Creative Writing PhD students.
This online, half-day, symposium is an opportunity to hear how Creative Writers approach their writing as research.
Our keynote speaker is Dr Sabrin Hasbun, (Cardiff Met University). Dr Hasbun was born in Palestine, spent her childhood in Palestine and Italy, and now lives in the UK. She lectures in Creative Writing at Cardiff Metropolitan University where she teaches and researches decolonial strategies through collective creation and action. She will discuss language, duty and power in her keynote.
We also hear from three of our own Creative Writing PhD students on their own journeys as Creative Writing researchers. The event concludes with a mixer session, allowing attendees to discuss the emergent ideas more informally.
