Dundee joins the Detroit Design Festival 2016

Professor Jim Livesey will be participating in a panel session at the Detroit City of Design Summit next week.

Part of the Detroit Design Festival 2016, the summit will be convening leaders from Detroit’s design community, government, community development, business and industry, along with international partners to explore how they can utilize design to build a better city.

This will be a fantastic opportunity for Dundee, the UK’s first UNESCO City of Design, to make links with the first and only UNESCO City of Design in the United States.

Jim Livesey is Professor of Global History at the University of Dundee, as well as being the Dean of the School of Humanities. He is also the Director of the Scottish Centre for Global History.
