Civic Engagement Plan

Together With and For Community

We pride ourselves on our societal engagement across lifelong learning, community-based research and learning, and volunteerism. 2020 will mark the 175th anniversary of UCC. This is an important milestone that we will celebrate through renewing our commitment to our community, and establishing UCC as an engaged campus of international standing.

Our Civic & Community Engagement Plan is UCC's first plan to cohere and advance our commitment to civic and community engagement, towards establishing the University as a best practice community engaged campus. Our approach has a democratic and social justice orientation that involves a focus on societal challenges and sustainable development goals, with global citizenship as a core value and outcome.
