Well done to Dr Adrian Hernandez (Francisco-J. Hernández Adrián) and Dr Angelos Theocharis, School of Modern Languages and Cultures, who, with support from the Institute of Hazard, Risk and Resilience, organised a very successful two-day event seminar.
Delta Futures took place both online and in person at Durham University on 24th and 25th March 2022. Exploring notions of visibility and ‘(in)visibility’ in a range of audio-visual practices and experiences, the conference attracted participants from 16 universities and 14 research centres and projects. Presenters from Bangladesh, India, Vietnam, the UK, EU, and US, engaged with urgent challenges and shared practices around the power of visuality and aurality (what can be seen and heard) to render discussions of invisibility, vulnerability, fragility and the empowerment of communities and networks more central to the Living Deltas Hub. We wish to thank our sponsors, the Newcastle University-based Living Deltas Hub; and the IHRR and the School of Modern Languages and Cultures (MLAC) at Durham University. For their kind and generous support, we thank professors Andy Large (Living Deltas PI), Julian Williams (IHRR Executive Director), and David Cowling (Head of MLAC).
