Lunch Hour Lecture: Changing Perspectives on Homelessness

We aim to raise awareness on homelessness. The lunch hour lecture will provide a platform for individuals with a lived experience to present their perspectives on the subject, share insights about how society contributes to the problem and offer their thoughts on how to help and mitigate the problem. A short talk will also be presented by James Fuller who has worked at Spires, a south London day centre for rough sleepers and, giving his views on homelessness experiences, alongside other experts by experience. We hope that these different perspectives will provide the audience with a better understanding of the causes and consequences that homelessness produces, and perhaps sensibilise them on this issue. Date: 17 October 2019 UCL's popular public Lunch Hour Lecture series has been running at UCL since 1942, and showcases the exceptional research work being undertaken across UCL. Lectures are free and open to all.
