Developing Sustainable Resilience in Higher Education

28 Sep 2020 | Following last week's member benefit webinar 'Developing Sustainable Resilience in Higher Education', tomorrow Advance HE's Doug Parkin @LEAD_Doug will be hosting a tweet chat to continue the discussion. 

The Twitter chat will take place on 29 September from 16.30 to 18.30 BST which will consolidate upon the webinar and be an opportunity for the community of participants to share their own tools, tips, techniques and experiences for developing sustainable resilience. The chat will take place from the Advance HE Twitter chat handle @AdvanceHE_chat and use the hashtags #AdvanceHE_chat and #DevSusRes

The six questions that will frame the Twitter chat conversation will be as follows: 

1. What is the one thing that is most important for your personal resilience, and how do you maintain this? (Share more than one, if you wish.) 

2. What has most impacted your own resilience throughout COVID-19, particularly in relation to work?  

3. Describe an approach, technique or practice that you personally find helpful and would recommend to others for building team resilience?  

4. Thinking about your own team or department as a collective, what has helped you most as a group since the COVID-19 outbreak?  

5. How can we approach resilience inclusively and ensure that support to build resilience is not shorthand for an acceptance of inequality and injustice?  

6. During a period of rapid and un-forecast change, what can a higher education institution do to maintain a resilient environment for the benefit of students, staff and the wider community?   

If you missed last week's member benefit webinar 'Developing Sustainable Resilience in Higher Education', the recording is now available, along with all other member webinar recordings in the Advance HE member benefits group on Advance HE Connect.
