On his appointment, Professor Magee said:

I am elated to join IIPP, led by Professor Mariana Mazzucato. It is my honour to work alongside an array of esteemed interdisciplinary colleagues who are committed to changing how public value is imagined, practised and evaluated in order to tackle societal challenges. I seek to support the IIPP’s important mission and contribute to its impact by exploring a range of cultural justice themes, focusing on the intersection of power and inequalities. Together we will consider how and to what extent racial, social, economic and digital injustice impact on Black British life, and explore approaches that can help promote equality and remove barriers to opportunity.

IIPP Director, Professor Mariana Mazzucato, also said:

I am thrilled to have Keith joining the UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose (IIPP) as a Visiting Professor of Practice. He brings years of experience working as a theologian, social justice scholar, and public intellectual. His understanding of how diversity, social justice, and public value fit together will add immense value to IIPP. We look forwards to working with him to strengthen our curriculum, research, and policy engagements.
