Join us for a discussion on the role of journalism in the 21st Century, featuring Frank Gardner, the BBC's Security Correspondent. This will be followed by a tea tasting by the founder of Dorje Teas, and an informal chat on the event and topic more broadly amongst attendees.

This paper will reveal the entanglements of timber trade and deforestation issues under the auspices of the League of Nations. As the discussion will show, forests and timber merged two intertwining threads. As an international forum for industrial cooperation, the League was focused on supporting and ensuring efficient global production of a variety of raw materials. Due to different circumstances, timber received a special attention on behalf of different players involved.

Engagement describes the many ways that we can share our research and its value by interacting with wider public audiences, generating mutual benefit. We look at what public engagement is and some of the reasons why you might want to do it. We'll highlight the multitude of different approaches you can take, including real examples from the University and further afield. We'll provide tips on getting started and where to get support. Our face to face sessions typically include researchers presenting their experiences and answering your questions.

Join us for a fantastic panel event bringing together representatives from academia, business, the UN World Tourism Organisation and Just a Drop - an NGO that has helped deliver sustainable water solutions to over 1.9 million people in 32 countries - to discuss how organisations can work together to progress sustainable tourism and delivery of the sustainable development goals. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn more and put your questions to sector leaders.

CVs and cover letters are read very quickly (think seconds!) yet are crucial for getting an interview. We will share tips on how to tailor your CV, articulate relevant skills and experience, and deliver an effective application. Through individual and group exercises, you will apply the learning to your own application materials.

This session will cover applications to a wide range of sectors, including academia.
