Universities' role in 'Levelling Up' and building back better
02/11/20 12:00 - 13:30
The UPP Foundation and Civic University Network are delighted to invite you to a webinar on the role of universities in two of the greatest government priorities in domestic policy – how to ‘level up’ areas of the country, and how to ‘build back better’ after Covid.
The UPP Foundation is launching two new connected reports to further explore this agenda, which this webinar will discuss.
Extending civic engagement to post-industrial towns; Universities’ role in levelling up and building back better, Part II
Covid-19: preventing a health crisis from becoming a permanent jobs crisis; Universities’ role in levelling up and building back better, Part I
The webinar will consist of a short presentation of the findings of both reports and will be followed by an expert panel who will discuss the role of universities in the levelling up agenda.
Speakers include:
RT HON Chris Skidmore MP - Former Minister for Universities
Professor Judith Petts CBE - Vice Chancellor, University of Plymouth
Richard Calvert - Deputy Vice Chancellor, Sheffield Hallam University
Angela Foulkes - Chief Executive and Principal, The Sheffield College
