Good Practice Symposium 2026
The 2026 Good Practice Symposium, with its thematic focus of belonging, aims to showcase case studies which are or intend to cultivate belonging in UCC.
At UCC, belonging can refer to the shared experience of feeling welcomed, valued, respected and the ability to fully participate in university life.
It is grounded through UCC’s strategic commitment to a people-centred, inclusive and engaged university, fostered through UCC’s strategy, Graduate Attributes Programme, EDI Framework and Global Engagement Strategy.
This sense of belonging, extends beyond staff and students to encompass a wider community of stakeholders, including alumni, local and regional partners, community organisations, industry, policymakers and international collaborators. Submissions will align with the theme of Belonging and may relate to teaching, learning, research, professional services, training, systems, processes, or any initiative that embeds belonging within UCC either directly or indirectly.
The Symposium will take place on Tuesday 19th May 2026 and we hope you stop by. Please see the programme for further information.
