Abstract

Who constitutes ‘the community’ and how should universities work with them? In this paper, we draw on the experience of the South East Coastal Communities (SECC) programme to explore three different ways in which participating universities chose to define approach and work with their ‘community’.

Key points

• Institutions involved in the SECC project trialled three distinct approaches to defining their community: by theme; by place; by common interest or identity.
• While some funding is important, successful partnership working is characterised by investment of time in long term relationships and understanding the mutual benefit for community and university partners.
