Description

This toolkit draws on our experiences facilitating a SATLE-funded community-engaged learning project that brought students of the School of Languages, Literatures, and Cultures (UCC) together with people in Cork seeking international protection for a series of three wellbeing and creativity workshops.

Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it

The toolkit highlights how students benefited from community-engaged learning through gaining tangible experience of how theories intersect with the real world, and through building the confidence to take initiative and contribute their own knowledge and skills to the organisation and implementation of the workshops. At the same time, it underscores the challenges that arose throughout the project, providing suggestions on how to overcome similar obstacles.
