In this webinar, representatives of the ENLIGHT Impact Task Force will introduce the concept of impact: What is impact? What is not impact? What is impact assessment? And what is the link with societal engagement? They will also present the ENLIGHT methodology for the impact assessment of university activities and discuss with participants how to embed an impact-driven culture at ENLIGHT universities and beyond.
Find out the answers to these questions and discuss about the impact/driven culture at universities! Registration is open to everyone by clicking on the link below.

Eight weeks ago, teachers Dr. Smita Raman-Gyetvai and Laura Syms, together with 24 students from five of ENLIGHT’s partner universities, representing at least 13 different cultures, embarked on a journey.The first six weeks were spent interacting online, with participants getting to know each other—starting from the basics of everyone's studies, to addressing hard questions such as defining the most pressing issues of our time. Throughout this process, the students formed genuine bonds as they researched and discovered information about the world through a myriad of lenses.
