Civic and Public Engagement

At Queen Mary University of London, we are deeply committed to being an institution that is connected to communities where our work has an impact: from east London to Rio de Janeiro. We strive to create an environment where Queen Mary's research and teaching can be shaped, conducted, and shared, with the public as partners in this process.  

To support this mission, our Centre for Civic and Public Engagement team works to support researchers and staff to embed civic and public engagement in their work through high-quality training, resources, advice and partnership building.

In 2021 we were the first university to be awarded a Platinum Engage Watermark by the National Coordinating Centre for Public Engagement, recognising Queen Mary’s strategic and sustained support for public engagement.
