South African visitor to the faculty

At the end of 2012 the Faculty hosted a visit by Professor Mavis Malaudzi Head of Department in Nursing at the University of Pretoria.

Professor Malaudzi met many of the staff with a view to establishing collaboration between her department and the Faculty.  Earlier in the year Professor Steven Ersser, Dean of the Faculty visited Mavis and colleagues in Pretoria and further visits by academics from Hull are planned.



Professor Malaudzi delivered a Faculty seminar on the concept of Ubunto and Ethics.  Ubuntu is a South African philosophy about relationships and allegiances and Professor Malaudzi's seminer examined the application of Ubuntu to the nursing curriculum.
