We are delighted to have Dr Erin Pritchard act as chair of the panel discussion of our landmark event, Disabled Women in Arts and Culture: Who’s Calling the Shots?
Dr Erin Pritchard is a lecturer at Liverpool Hope University in the department of Disability and Education.
Her research focuses on the social and spatial experiences of people with dwarfism within the built environment. Her work engages with Geographies of disability and Geographies of body size to understand how particular spaces are exclusionary for people with dwarfism.
More specifically her work explores how people with dwarfism navigate through different spaces and negotiate both social and spatial barriers, including unwanted attention.
Her work has appeared in The Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research, the International Journal of Social Research Methodologies and Geography Compass.
