Community-engaged research

At Loughborough, our research pushes boundaries, fosters interdisciplinary collaboration, and addresses the world’s most pressing challenges. We nurture connections between our researchers and local, national, and global communities and partners to create new knowledge(s) that drive positive and lasting change. Here you can find examples and case studies of our research that places our local communities at its heart, from sharing our knowledge at public events and interactive games, to opportunities for community members to drive their own research agenda.
