El. knyga: Routledge Companion to Architectural Pedagogies of the Global South

Dr. Harriet Harriss (RIBA, PFHEA, Ph.D., FRSA) is an award-winning educator, qualified architect, and the former Dean of the Pratt School of Architecture in Brooklyn. Her teaching, research, and writing focus on pioneering pedagogic models for design education and exploring the intersectional edge of social justice and the climate crisis theories and practices, themes that emerged from two of her highly-regarded texts, Radical Pedagogies: Architectural Education & the British Tradition (2015) and A Gendered Profession (2016). Dr. Harriss advocacy for diversity and inclusion within design education was further recognized by Dezeen Magazine, which identified Dean Harriss as one of the Top Ten Champions for Women in Architecture and Design in 2019. Her publication, Architects After Architecture (2020), won the Annual Bates Prize for Architectural Media. Her recent and forthcoming publications include Greta Magnusson Grossman - Modern Design from Sweden to California (2021), Working at the Intersection: The Architecture of the Post-Anthropocene (2022)100 Women Architects (2023), Architectures Afterlife (2023) and The Routledge Companion to Architectural Pedagogies of the Global South (2023). Combined, these texts extrapolate upon her growing expertise in archival activism, climate crisis curriculum, and diversity, equity, and inclusion. In her own words, Dr. Harriss argues that there can be no climate justice without climate justice and that the co-creation of a climate crisis curriculum is the most pressing imperative facing architectural education and practice.
