Programme

Each day will be organised around workshops delivered by experts in cognate fields. Participants will be asked to bring with them resources and teaching ideas that they wish to develop in connection with the workshops. Time will be dedicated to working on these materials following the workshop presentations, as part of the 'Developing ideas' sessions.

There will, additionally, be scheduled opportunities for networking and a live performance of the Roman de Silence, as well as discussions of community engagement and cross-institutional sharing of resources.
