Digifest panel: The community champions alumni - how to make collaboration happen

Activity: Talk or presentationInvited talk

Description

Hear from our champions alumni about how they encourage collaboration, engage communities and make shared learning happen.

By working together we can achieve more. We learn from each other, collectively solve challenges and innovate. It's not always easy, and it's important to understand the practices that can support collaboration, particularly when working across institutions and disciplines.

Now in its fifth year, the Jisc community champions programme celebrates people working tirelessly behind the scenes to make collaboration happen. In this session we hear from our champions alumni about how they encourage collaboration, engage communities and make shared learning happen.
