A joint collaboration between University of London and London School of Economics (LSE), A Place to Call Home: Poverty and Housing in London will chart the cultural, economic and political history of the capital over the past 200 years.

Curated by academic librarians Mura Ghosh and Emily Chu (Senate House Library) and LSE curator Indy Bhullar, A Place to Call Home: Poverty and Housing in London will focus on poverty, housing and communities. The exhibition will highlight the huge changes that have taken place in the capital, and the many challenges that remain for its residents.
