Public Engagement Events

National Co-ordinating Centre for Public Engagement

Public engagement describes the many ways in which higher education institutions and their staff and students can connect and share their work with the public. Done well, it generates mutual benefit, with all parties learning from each other through sharing knowledge, expertise and skills. In the process, it can build trust, understanding and collaboration, and increase the sector's relevance to, and impact on, civil society.

DEP works with both Manchester Metropolitan University(MMU) and Manchester University, bringing together expertise and knowldege with the local to global perspective and creating exciting examples of public engagement.
