Local-Global Forums 2007

• The Local-Global Program Handbury Fellowship Community Presentations
• The Local-Global Program Public Lectures

A total of twelve Handbury Fellowships were awarded between 2002 and 2006. Research themes emerging from these applications focused on culture and the arts, place and environment, technology and resources, learning and education, and work and money. As part of the Fellowship’s commitment to community research, the following Community Forums will be held to showcase successful Fellowship projects. The program below also includes a number of related public lectures. An evaluation of the Fellowship program led to the conclusion that more needs to be done to communicate the outcomes and explore applications of completed research.
