Religious stakeholder network. In the Autumn of 2020,
Alex Samely faciliated the establishment of an advisory group of civic and faith-based organisations to help develop ways in which the results of the Department’s academic research can be made more directly beneficial to contemporary society. Fifteen experienced stakeholders, representing a variety of organisations dedicated to improving aspects of civic and religious life, advise the Department as members of the Research Impact Advisory Group.
