On Wednesday October 23, 2024, Philip Jagessar and Jennifer Fraser, in collaboration with Stuart Dunn and Cristina Goldschmidt Kiminami from the Department of Digital Humanities, hosted an interactive mapping exercise and “walkshop” to explore how the pedestrianisation of Strand Aldwych influences student wellbeing.
This event, featuring a presentation from Justin Colson (Layers of London) and a conversation led by Tamsyn Dent, saw participants complete several mapping and visualisation exercises to illustrate the role that spatial and structural factors contribute to health and cultivate critical reflections on what the Strand area means to KCL’s student body.
The walkshop was supported by a SSHM-Wellcome Network Grant and a KCL Arts & Humanities grant.
