CO-LAB 4.0 Empowerment through Education
CO-LAB 4.0: Empowerment through Education
Date: Monday 2nd March, 11.30 – 3pm, Helen Martin Studio, Warwick Arts Centre
The Collaboration and Communities Learning Circle of Warwick Institute of Engagement are putting together plans for the 4th edition of COLAB, an annual workshop that brings together Warwick staff and students and their key collaborators for a series of conversations about what collaboration can achieve and to enable networking and future collaborations to grow.
COLAB 4 focuses on the transformative role Warwick’s education can play when it works to empower people outside the organisation to change their communities and places for the better. It explores innovative ways in which Warwick’s staff (and students) collaborate with stakeholders outside the academy to exchange skills and knowledge.
The session will be of interest to staff, students and community organisations with an interest in collaborative forms of public engagement and knowledge exchange.
