Assistant Professor of Architecture
Barnard College, Columbia University

Join us for the 2022 R.K. Teetzel Lecture featuring Anooradha Iyer Siddiqi, Assistant Professor of Architecture at Columbia University’s Barnard College. Her engaging and thought-provoking talk will explore autonomy and authorship – two concepts with a long history in architectural practice and discourse – in the architectural work at the UNHCR-administered refugee camps in Dadaab, Kenya. During this examination, the lecture will encourage audience members to think through concepts of building, gender, expertise, and authority.

The 2022-23 R.K. Teetzel Lecture is being held in-person at University College, as well as streaming live online for home viewers.

Faculty, staff, students, and the public are cordially invited to this hybrid lecture.
