The Faculty of Health's Professor Rachael Dixey delivered her inaugural lecture on Thursday evening in the iconic Rose Bowl.

The lecture 'Health, Social Justice and Access to Learning' considered the relationships globally between health inequalities and education, exploring ideas of education as liberatory and empowering, and consequently how this impacts on the politics of health.

Professor Dixey is the head of Health Promotion at Leeds Met. She has a lifelong interest in Africa, doing PhD research in the 1970s on access to primary schooling in Botswana. Inspired by the politics of health inequalities, Rachael is committed to improving health globally.

  • Still following the radical stance of health promotion as per the Ottawa Charter. Have been a long 12 years after Leeds to find a practical way to implement the ideals. Anyway congrats on the Professorship. I feel deeply saddened by the passing away of my friend Dr John Hubley. He did a lot of work here in our country in the 90's. May his soul rest in eternal peace. Hamba Kahle- John!!
