What is Resonate?

Warwick Institute of Engagement public engagement events are branded and advertised under the banner of 'Resonate'.

The Resonate programme was originally designed as Warwick's output for Coventry City of Culture in 2021. After a successful first year, the Resonate brand was recognisable to local members of the public. By branding ourselves this way, we have found that our events appear more inviting to public audiences. You can check out the Resonate website hereLink opens in a new window.

We hold public events on campus and at various community venues across Coventry and Warwickshire. We work collaboratively with Warwick staff (academic, technical and professional services), students and local partners. Information about how to get involved in our upcoming events can be found on our Upcoming Events webpage.

Audience First Engagement

The Resonate programme runs on an 'audience first' ethos. Meaningful engagement has to be relevant and accessible to members of our local community. As such, we pay close attention to all feedback given at our events. Each year, we write a Resonate Pledge, outlining the improvements we plan to make the programme based on attendee feedback.
