Local Lives vs Global Goals: Should Keele focus on our region or the wider world?

Should regional universities maintain their global ambitions and worldwide research partners, or should their role be focused squarely on home turf and improving the lives of those who live around their campuses? In this Keele Debate we'll be considering the civic impact of universities, the role of higher education in economic growth and regeneration, and the often unseen impact that universities have on local healthcare.

Join a panel including Sir Tristram Hunt, Director of the V&A and former MP for Stoke-on-Trent Central; Dr Alicia Greated, Executive Director of Campaign for Science and Engineering; Carol Shanahan OBE, Chair of Port Vale Football Club; Joan Walley, former MP for Stoke-on-Trent North.
