EXPLORING FORCED DISPLACEMENT THROUGH THE POWER OF EDUCATION

The University of Southampton Race, Ethnicity and Cultural Heritage Staff Network, in collaboration with Widening Participation & Social Mobility and the Office of Development and Alumni Relations, present this special evening commemorating World Refugee Day.

Lost Homes, New Horizons is a unique opportunity to hear directly from those who have experienced displacement and resettlement and gain a deeper understanding of the legal and policy frameworks that shape their lives.

Our three speakers are:

Dr Homira May Rezai, Chair of Hazara Committee UK, and Hewan Omer, Country Director of the Free Yezidi Foundation, will share their experiences of seeking refuge and resettling, highlighting the challenges they faced and how education played a crucial role in their journey and helped them to succeed in their new homes. They will also discuss the importance of refugee rights and the need for more inclusive policies to address the global refugee crisis.

They will be joined by Barrister Dr S. Chelvan who specialises in the claims of lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans or intersex (LGBTI) asylum seekers fleeing homophobic or transphobic persecution. Chelvan will provide insight into the legal issues facing refugees and asylum seekers, his experiences and successes, and why he has chosen to specialise in this area of law. Chelvan is Head of Immigration and Public Law at 33 Bedford Row Chambers, and a Visiting Adjunct Professor at Southampton Law School.

Everyone is invited to join us in this important conversation and to show their support for refugees on World Refugee Day.

After hearing from all three speakers there will be an Audience Q&A.

Running time: 1 hour 30 minutes approx.
Refreshments available from 17:45

We are holding a one day symposia sponsored by the FELS Mental Health initiative and IFLS Cell biology theme to showcase the potential, possibilities and local expertise in human stem cell and organoid biology. These reduced systems of complex human biology are already serving an important focus for Life Sciences research. They act as a pivot in the transition between molecular and cellular investigation as they build complexity toward tissue, organ and completely animal research. Of course, studying biological principles in a human context makes these experimental systems an important future for human research. This places the technology at the forefront of translational biology across a number of important domains encompassing drug discovery, toxicology, and genetic basis of disease and offers potency in therapeutic approaches to regenerative medicine. The day will introduce exciting science and aim to establish routes to grow infrastructure and networking across the University to facilitate uptake and use of this technology in our research portfolios.

The confirmed speakers are:

  • Davide Danovi (Kings College London)
  • James Armstrong (University of Bristol)
  • Mercedes Beyna (Biogen)
  • Salah Elias (University of Southampton)
  • Sandrine Willaimie-Morawek (University of Southampton)
  • Nicole Prior (University of Southampton)
  • Janos Kanczler (University of Southampton)

Round table discussion of expertise and infrastructures.

There will be a small post meeting social event for those that can attend, this will start at 4pm.

Full programme to follow.

A SOUTHAMPTON SUMMER NIGHT 2023 (19:00)

Additional Place Info: Turner Sims

It’s time to pack your picnic and dust off your dancing shoes – A Southampton Summer Night is BACK! This year, we’ve invited The Art House CIC to guest curate the evening, and once again it’s a perfect celebration of the wealth of unique musical talent in Southampton.

From 6.30pm Bring your picnic and blanket and join us in the stunning gardens at Highfield Campus outside Turner Sims. The foyer and bar will be open with its usual range of beers and wine, or you could try our Summer Nights cocktail or treat yourself to a delicious organic ice cream.

Make the most of The Art House To Go on sale in the foyer tonight! Made with lots of love, their delicious vegan snacks, pastries and cakes (with low gluten options available) will make the perfect addition to your Summer Night picnic.

7pm – 7.45pm in the foyer: Babsie Brown and the Miniature Orchestra 
Start your evening in the Turner Sims Foyer, as four fully grown humans play dark tunes on ridiculously small instruments. Babsie Brown and The Miniature Orchestra are taking over the world via the medium of tiny things. It looks kinda funny, but sounds remarkably rad.

8pm – 8.45pm in the auditorium: Spitdust
Spitdust create cinematic soundscapes from a patchwork of original modern folk and experimental rock. The resulting futuristic sound takes you on a journey quite unlike anything you’ve experienced before. They often draw upon the retro-futurist nostalgia of 1960s and 1970s counterculture and science fiction. Their 2019 album Mirror People was a reimagining of traditional English music in a post-industrial age. In their latest album The Silent Star, the world has come to an end, its echoes drifting through outer space.

8.45 – 9.15pm in the foyer: Albert de Lyon Interval Walkabout
During the interval, make sure you bump into golden grandee Albert de Lyon. Under the exclusive management of entertainer Guy Heathcote, Albert is one of Hampshire’s most distinguished and decorated big cats. When not combing his mane, polishing his crown or napping under the nearest tree, you may catch him playing paw-tapping tunes on his trusty squeezebox, ‘Samba’. Alternatively, he might be in the mood to share one of his many dexterous party tricks, which are sure to earn a roar of approval. Or perhaps he’ll simply drop in for a purr-sonable chinwag with his adopted pride? It’s always hard to tell with Albert… and who’s going to argue with an actual LION???

9.15pm – 10pm in the auditorium: Pip Summers and the Wandering Waterbears
A showcase from Southampton singer-songwriter Pip Summers. Wherever there is music and good vibes, you can find her somewhere close by, singing her heart out to an ever-growing, appreciative crowd. Expect a finely-tuned balance of controlled, chaotic fun, honest and heartfelt (but tuneful) screaming, and an emotional earnestness that runs through everything this Shouty-Acoustic transfemme multi-instrumentalist does. Tonight, she is joined by her band of merry boys, The Wandering Waterbears.

10pm – 10.50pm in the foyer: DJ Sir Hubert Carpet
Head back to the foyer, where the bar is still open and the music is playing. Sir Hubert Carpet may be better known to many as Paul Bickmore (or ‘Bik’), one of the founding directors of The Art House CIC. Bik’s roots lie deep in ambient, downtempo and psychedelic genres. Expect tribal beats, electronic textures, psytrance and an ethereal worldbeat fusion with a smattering of ambient house. It will be a transcendent musical journey into vibrant sonic colours and pulsating rhythms. Feel the beat. Shuffle your feet.

IN ADVANCE: Standard £14 Friends £12.60 Students & under 18s £7
ON THE DAY: Standard £17 Friends £15.30 Students & under 18s £9

A Southampton Summer Night 2023 is guest curated by the Art House CIC in partnership with Turner Sims

She has worked with some of the greatest global musicians, including Edmar Castaneda (Colombia), Toumani Diabate (Mali), Seckou Keita (Senegal) and Ireland’s Aoife Ní Bhriain.

The 6-piece Grammy-nominated Cimarrón are led by vocalist Ana Veydo. They perform joropo dance music from the cattle-rearing plains of the Orinoco, rooted in a deep tradition defined by the mestizo mixed heritage of African, Spanish and indigenous cultures. Cimarrón make wild, untamed music that preserves the spirit of freedom found in one of the world’s most untouched regions. Fast-paced and powerful, their music combines impetuous singing, amazing stomp dancing and fierce instrumental virtuosity of strings and percussion.

A rare chance to witness a thrilling global collaboration.
