- What is London Anthropology Day (LAD)? -
London Anthropology Day is an annual university taster day for Year 12, 13, FE students, careers advisers and teachers to discover what anthropology is about, explore the types of careers anthropologists do and gain hands-on experience of what it is like to study the subject at university (see www.londonanthropologyday.co.uk<http://www.londonanthropologyday.co.uk> ). The event is now in its 14th year. It is specifically aimed at pre-university students considering an undergraduate anthropology degree . LAD takes place at the Clore Education Centre, British Museum. See these photos from the event last year: https://flic.kr/s/aHskGieHpL
- What do volunteers do? -
Volunteers are an essential part of the event and take part in a rota of activities including registration, setting up displays, catering, monitoring workshops and engaging with participants about their experience of studying undergraduate anthropology . The event provides a great opportunity to network with anthropologists, students, anthropology teachers and people interested in the discipline.
- What is it like to be on the volunteer team? -
Many volunteers return each year to be part of this - it is an enjoyable event and a chance to pass on your interest in the subject and speak about why you like anthropology! In return for your time, you will receive an RAI T-Shirt and a London Anthropology Day Bag to keep, plus Pizza and Drinks to enjoy in the evening of London Anthropology Day.
