Botticello, Julie A - University of East London - School of Health, Sport and Bioscience

研究领域

For her PhD, Julie conducted research with Yoruba Nigerians, in London and in Nigeria, on cultural identity in migration. This was made evident both through continuing practices with food, clothing and religion, but also through aspirations for change, gained through new food and wellbeing practices, supranational religious belonging, and participation in expansive economic circles. Post PhD, Julie has also conducted research in factories whose outputs rely on the internalization, transmission and materialization of the knowledge of the producers. In 2009, she worked in a rag regrading factory in which second hand clothes were sorted and graded by factory workers, whose job it was to determine the maximum value that could be extracted from the clothing in the global marketplace. More recently, in 2013, she conducted a visual ethnography in a lace making factory in the East Midlands, to situate this factory and its continued production potentials in a local economy of production decline. She also aimed to capture what the workers know, using still and motion photography, to represent the process of making and to grasp what the lace makers know and how this might be able to be passed onto others. Both before and after her PhD research, Julie conducted research with allotment gardeners, on the foods they grew, and how their allotment practices aligned with other values, around sustainability, locality and know how. Over the past year, her work has focused more specifically on the social determinants of health and the growing issue of TB in London. She is collaborating with researchers from Imperial College London and representatives of affected community groups, to develop a grassroots approach toward understanding how different types of access and expertise, as well as power relations, impact on this health problem.
