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

UFS focuses on human rights
2008-02-05

 

Kovsie Support Services at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently held the first of a series of workshops on Human Rights Awareness to cultivate a culture of human rights at the UFS. This first workshop was dedicated to the Residence Heads. More workshops of this nature will be held to afford the whole university community an opportunity to learn about human rights. These workshops form part of the Residence Diversity Implementation Committee's (RDIC) mandate. Attending the workshop were, from the left: Dr Choice Makhetha (Deputy Dean: Student Affairs), Mr Hein Badenhorst (new Residence Head), Ms Masego Petlhu (Human Rights Commission), Mrs Elsie Rupping (Residence Head) and Adv. Mothusi Lepheane (Human Rights Commission).
