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

Kovsies ladies’ and men’s basketball first teams showed off their expertise on the court – hosting a camp for first-year students. Shooting hoops at the two Callie Human outdoor courts, the teams helped about 150 first-year students through drills, skills challenges and games.

Men’s first-team player, Clemen Kock, says the new-comers, a mix of first-time and experienced basketball players, had “a mad time” on the court learning new skills. “We are looking forward to a great year of academics mixed with some crazy basketball with a Res-Campus League kicking off soon.”
