This workshop explores the evolving landscape of research, emphasising impactful knowledge production, collaboration, participatory approaches and effective science communication. Participants will engage deeply with contemporary models and practical strategies designed to maximise the societal, environmental and academic value of research.

It is often maintained that QA is everyone's business; however, the reality is that the development of a quality culture in an HEI cannot be attained overnight. It cannot be imposed. Quality culture is context-bound and can only be encouraged and nurtured. At this webinar, participants will engage in discussion on quality culture, the associated challenges and strategies for influencing mindsets in the institution. A few participants from HEIs in the SADC will be invited to verbally share their experiences of promoting a quality culture.
