Newcastle University and the University of Pittsburgh Virtual Collaborative Conference

Presented by: The University of Pittsburgh and Newcastle University

Between 19 and 20 October 2022 Newcastle University will host the second collaborative conference. Building on last year’s conference they will explore and share best practices on how Universities advance place-based approaches through community and student engagement and importantly how we measure our impact and demonstrate accountability to our communities and stakeholders.

The conference will include a program of concurrent sessions focused on the themes of sustainability, health, culture and cities and places. Plenary sessions will draw upon the role universities play in their place, looking at a range of international contexts and approaches to impact and evaluation.
