Community Engagement
Description
This module provides an opportunity for learners to develop a project in a local community or online advocacy context advancing issues of Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI). This practical engagement should allow students to identify issues relating to EDI in their communities or professional organisations and through development of a collaborative group project, championing change in that arena. This module compliments the theory-based modules in the programme.
