The Directorate: Community Engagement will be virtually celebrating the launch of the new E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy on 10 December 2020.
Most of the face-to-face community engagement activities could not take place this year due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 global pandemic and related physical distancing restrictions. Therefore, an E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy has been developed as an adapted virtual participatory learning environment in collaboration with our community, business, and government partners. This E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy seeks to make information accessible to communities through dialogue on engaged learning, training, and research for citizens to take actively part in developing their own lives and that of their surrounding communities.
Details of the launch:
Date: 10 December 2020
Time: 16:00 (CAT)
Platform: Microsoft Teams

The university hosted members of the South African Defence Review Committee who consulted on the Draft Defence Review with interested parties. Representatives from the Department of Defence and Military Veterans, the South African National Defence Force, academics, politicians and members of the public attended the public consultation on the Bloemfontein Campus.
The Defence Review Committee coordinates and facilitates a draft Defence Review Policy for the country and public consultations have been held countrywide. The committee is chaired by Mr Roelf Meyer, a former Defence Minister and chief negotiator for the National Party government during the multiparty negotiations in 1993.
