Short Course Speakers

The Short Course programme speakers are carefully selected to include a balance of academics, researchers and practitioners.

Many of these individuals work in practice and in academia, providing practitioner experience and theoretical insight into the subjects they teach. Their hands-on experience provides a unique environment for exchange and dialogue.
