The First Black Female Dean Of A Faculty Of Design in the World!- An Agent Of Change
Welcome to the 4th episode of my legacy project, Urban Lifestyle Report Podcast and I'm your host Carolyn Morris-Walker. Can I tell you how absolutely delighted I am to have Elizabeth (Dori) Tunstall, the first Black female dean of a faculty of design anywhere in the WORLD as my guest on this platform that exemplifies BlackNificence & Black Excellence in our community.
It's a place and space to showcase the many talents of Black and African people who are often invisible, not acknowledged and not celebrated in popular media for their talents, achievements and accomplishments that contributes positively to the community. So, I am delighted to bring you amazing individuals who are doing outstanding work in a plethora of areas as educators, creatives, influencers, game changers, entrepreneurs, innovators, artists and in so many other arenas. Listen in and enjoy the conversation!
Elizabeth (Dori) Tunstall is a design anthropologist, public intellectual, and design advocate who works at the intersections of critical theory, culture, and design. As Dean of Design at Ontario College of Art and Design University, she leads the Cultures-Based Innovation Initiative focused on using old ways of knowing to drive innovation processes that directly benefit communities.
