Doing Community Engagement Differently in the Time of Pandemic. Melbourne CSHE Discussion Paper
Law, Siew Fang
Melbourne Centre for the Study of Higher Education
As University communities are increasingly affected by the global pandemic, University engagement will and should 'look different' in 2020. There is a risk that academic engagement may be pushed to the sidelines during the time of global pandemic. This report offers eight recommendations of small actions that a University community could take to remain connected and engaged with themselves and with their communities. The recommendations reflect Urie Bronfenbrenner's social ecological framework for human development, which is widely used in Peace Psychology.
