Leeds academic joins ‘The Great Debate Tour’ finale
Professor Kevin Hylton, Head of Research Centre: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at the Carnegie School of Sport, has been invited as a panellist by the Rt. Hon Diane Abbott MP.
The event, which is now in its 9th year, is an annual tour targeting communities across the country, predominantly during Black History Month. It is a celebration of diversity and heritage as well as a forum for powerful, thought-provoking discussion.
The theme for this year’s finale, which takes place on Thursday 22 November, is ‘The Back Experience within Higher Education’.
Professor Hylton said: “I am pleased to be invited to take part in ‘The Great Debate Tour’ finale. Any event which helps celebrate diversity and heritage, as well as getting people talking about important issues is always welcome and I’m delighted to be involved.”
