“Muslims in the North”: Maria Hussain showcases the trailblazing success of notable Muslim figures in a new exhibition.
<p>Maria Hussain, Lecturer in Management and Organisations at Leeds University Business School, was awarded funding by the Cultural Institute to collaborate with <a href="https://museumsandgalleries.leeds.gov.uk/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Leeds Museums and Galleries</a> (LMG) and curator Adam Jaffer to disseminate her <a href="https://teachingexcellence.leeds.ac.uk/research/fellowships/enhancing-the-value-placed-on-diversity/?preview=true" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">LITE research</a> findings visually.</p>
<p>This display presents innovative ways in which research can engage with civic spaces in becoming more accessible to local and diverse stakeholders more.</p>
<p>As Maria approaches the conclusion of her project, she meets with us to discuss her motivations for applying to the fund and looks forward to highlighting a key milestone in the project on 6 March.</p>
