The Jameel Library Reading Groups return this autumn season with Multispecies Cities. In this series, participants read and discuss literature, articles and various other media that explore the relationships between people, animals and other living beings in an urban environment. The series is led in English by Dr. Neha Vora.
To learn more about and register for each session, please follow the links below.
Reading groups are free and open to all. Registration is required, as space is limited. Registered participants are expected to commit to all the sessions and reading material, to attend the session they have registered for, and to support a respectful, informed and open discursive environment.
Dr. Neha Vora is Professor of Anthropology in the Department of International Studies at the American University of Sharjah. She pursues interdisciplinary research in themes such as diasporas and migration, citizenship, globalised higher education, gender, and human-nonhuman encounters. Her books include Impossible Citizens: Dubai’s Indian Diaspora (Duke, 2013) and Teach for Arabia: American Universities, Liberalism, and Transnational Qatar (Stanford, 2018).
