Repair launch with Blandine Emilien

An academic dissects a defining period of self-repair. Through raw reflections on events, thoughts, and their echoes, she navigates a quest for self-improvement and renewal.
Repair immerses readers in the labyrinth of one woman’s past, present, and future—centred on her complex psychological reckoning with equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI). Far from liberating, EDI becomes a source of exhaustion for her and those she strives to support.
This work gives voice to the silenced—an homage to choices made in shadows.

Blandine will be in discussion with Sheena Vachhani, Professor of Work and Organization Studies at the University of Bristol Business School. She is an interdisciplinary researcher interested in organisations and society, whose work centres social inequalities, ethics, politics and difference in work and organisation and how they relate to social transformation and social justice across multiple axes of oppression and precarity.
