Tig Slater

Dr. Tig Slater PhD

Associate Professor in Queer Disability Studies and Education


Summary

My work draws on disability, queer, trans and gender studies to consider relationships disability, gender and the body. I am also interested in critical explorations of developmental discourse, issues of access/accessibility and institutional Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Policy (EDI).

About

Sitting at the intersection of trans, queer and disability studies, I have led a number of funded research projects which have utilised co-produced and participatory methods to explore themes relating to public space, bodies, gender, issues of social justice and workplace solidarity.
 
I am a founding member of the Queer Disability Studies Network (https://queerdisabilitystudies.wordpress.com).
 
One of my research projects, Around the Toilet, has been awarded the National Coordinating Centre for Public Engagement’s (NCCPE) ‘Engage’ Award for public engagement within the arts, humanities and social sciences.

I conceptualise 鈥榚ducation鈥 broadly through my teaching, asking questions about the relationships between 鈥榚ducation鈥, stratification (gender, race, class, sexuality, dis/ability and so on) and transnational capitalism. I am interested in critiquing dominant discourses of 鈥榙evelopment鈥 as they relate to education, particularly in relation to the individualisation of social inequalities.

My research has taken place through a number of distinct, but related research projects. These have included:
 
1. My 2015 monograph challenges our understandings of disability, youth and adulthood (Slater, 2015)
2. A series of AHRC funded research projects, collectively known as 'Around the Toilet', which centred queer, trans and disabled people, to ask what makes a safe and accessibility toilet space.
2. A BA/Leverhulme funded project called 'Whose Rainbow?' which asked what LGBT+ staff and students in higher education felt about the ways universities use rainbow symbolism.
3. 'Is All Publicity Good Publicity? Addressing Public Harassment in LGBT+ 香蕉视频 Impact & Engagement' asks what universities should be going to safeguard those doing LGBT+ research from public harassment.
