Join us for our fourth annual conference! The day is going to be a fascinating exploration of public engagement with a mix of practical sessions, opportunities to listen and learn, and spaces for you to share your thoughts and perspectives. The conference is free to attend and open to all Warwick staff and students, as well as all Members of WIE. Community members and University partners with an interest in public engagement are also very welcome to join us, as well as those working in Public Engagement at other institutions, as long as they sign up for WIE Membership (this is free and can be done as part of your booking for the conference).

This year's theme is Impacts from engagement - exploring both REF Impact from public engagement work, but also impact beyond the REF, for example the effects of public engagement for our community partners, for students and regional partners.
