Community Engagement Unit
The scholarship of engagement relates to the wide range of ‘work’ (i.e. community engagement) that Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) do in partnership with different ‘communities’ (e.g. scholarly community, student community, civil society, and international community).
HEIs have a longstanding tradition of teaching, research, and community engagement. Globally contemporary HEIs are required to make a fundamental contribution to the development of civil society infused by relevant, innovative scholarly research and academic endeavours, steeped in the three-part legislated role of HEIs.
Community engagement is the pivotal point that feeds into and from teaching and research, and the link between these three legislative roles are equally important based on partnership and inclusivity.
