Public and Community Engagement

Public and Community Engagement

Welcome to our Public and Community Engagement page which will tell you everything you need to know about our impactful activities in our local campus communities and beyond.

Informed by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the strategy is centred on four main priorities: better health and wellbeing, advancing social inclusion, delivering economic prosperity, and promoting environmental sustainability. Each priority is underpinned by several goals, providing a clear roadmap for the University’s public and community engagement activities over the next five years. 

The strategy will enable the University to: support its students to achieve experiential outcomes while helping our local communities to thrive; develop connections between our educational programmes and the needs of our communities; conduct research which illuminates and helps address community needs; encourage community contributions towards a more sustainable environment; and work with communities to make them more equitable and inclusive.
