In the course of the year 2024, the project partners organised bootcamps at their HEIs. These included, on the one hand, building up knowledge about the potential, conditions for success and challenges of socially engaged research among young researchers and, on the other hand, introducing so-called engagement managers at the universities to the topic of socially engaged research. The bootcamps included various sessions as well as phases of self-study. Above all, the young researchers gained more knowledge on how socially engaged research can strengthen their own research. The engagement managers were provided with new perspectives and skills to strengthen socially engaged research at their HEI.

More detailed information on the boot camps can be found under the National Centres.
