Saffron Woodcraft
urbanism, anthropology, and architecture in City of London, United Kingdom
I am an anthropologist with 15+ years of experience of working on research and innovation projects about people, places and change in the built environment. I work with communities, councils, architects, planners and housing providers to understand how change can create more sustainable and prosperous places.
I am currently researching connections between prosperity and regeneration in East London as part of UCL's Institute for Global Prosperity. I work as a consultant anthropologist on community-based research to inform socio-economic strategies and measuring neighbourhood change. I occasionally teach at UCL Anthropology, and advise Social Life, the social enterprise I co-founded in 2012.
