Community Engagement
The Owerko Centre's community goal is to enhance connections with the community that will inform and translate innovative research.
The Owerko Centre has three primary community engagement goals:
- To connect with community partners to inform and seek feedback about the research programs and projects at the Owerko Centre.
- To increasing public awareness of the Owerko Centre mission and vision.
- To develop opportunities for project partnerships and collaborations with stakeholders for Owerko Centre researchers and trainees.
