We are pleased to send you advance notice for the establishment of a new Network. The main aims of the Community Research and Engagement Network are to:
- Deliver a network which gives focus on community, participant based research
- Develop a repository which captures and holds the breadth of such work
- Acknowledge the innovative models of engagement which start with the diverse needs of participants – not educational providers or funders.
There are some universities who have expressed an interest in this work and we will soon be offering opportunities for UALL members to also register their interest in joining this Network. We will then set about our plans to develop a seminar series as well as a conference for 2017 exploring community innovations in learning, engagement and community based research.
Mark Richardson (South Wales) is convening this Network and he will be updating you with further information about this Network shortly – so please do keep your eye on this space.
With best wishes,
Lucy
