Summary:

Pelin Tan speaks on decolonizing architecture education, as part of the weeklong workshop and seminar series Toolkit for today : activisms. Tan is a sociologist, art historian, and was Associate Professor and Vice Dean of Architecture Faculty of Mardin Artuklu University from 2013 to 2017. She was subsequently a fellow of BAK, in Utrecht, and will begin an appointment as Visiting Professor at the University of Cyprus, in the fall of 2018. She is involved in artistic and architectural projects that focus on urban conflict, territorial politics, and the conditions of labour.
