Knowledge Exchange Seminar Series

Newcastle University Knowledge Exchange Seminar Series (NU-KESS)

NU-KESS aims to encourage debate and promote evidence-based policy making.

In partnership with local policy making organisations, NU-KESS enables academics to share their research findings:

  • in a straightforward format
  • on issues relevant to our partners and communities
  • in a 'safe space' that fosters discussion, improved understanding and greater opportunity for future in-depth engagement 

Seminars are free to attend and usually held on Wednesdays throughout the year via Zoom.
