History

ChangeMakers has been running since 2014-15 when we piloted 10 student-led projects infleunced by the work of Lizz Dunne's  at the University of Exeter. Since then, ChangeMakers has evolved to support 50-80 projects each academic year unpinned by the values of student-staff partnership.

Benefits

  • Students undertaking the projects become more engaged, responsible and pro-active learners – students with a stronger sense of belonging.
  • Departments gain the expertise and enthusiasm of students motivated to help make positive change at ÂÒÂ×Ðã. 
  • Both learn from the experience of working with the other in a relationship of trust, equality and mutual gain.
