Join us for the biggest celebration of the year!

In honour of the 255th Annual General Meeting, you are invited to visit the House on Wednesday, 7 October 2009 when the RSA will be alive with activity!

Fellows are encouraged to visit the house between 10 am and 4.30 pm on the 7 October to attend a variety of informal seminars delivered by our Projects Team.

Our researchers will be on hand to deliver their seminars and chat with Fellows at the following times in the Durham Street Auditorium:

Connected Communities
10.30 am – 12 noon
Steve Broome and William Shaw will discuss their programme of action research projects that work together to understand how social networks operate and can be better used in creating the kind of sustainable communities we want to live in.

Peterborough Project
1.30 – 2.20 pm
Sam McLean will be on hand to talk about The Peterborough Project; an exciting, long-term partnership between the RSA, Peterborough City Council, Opportunity Peterborough and Arts Council East with the core aim of reshaping the identity of Peterborough around active, sustainable citizenship.

Design & Education
2.30 – 3.20 pm
Emily Campbell and Louise Thomas will explore the  ways in which design principles might be applied in education to support rigorous innovation, as well as increase the agency, independence and capacity of educational practitioners.

Social Brain
3.30 – 4.20 pm
Matt Grist will discuss  new ways of thinking about brains and behaviour that offer insight into how to create a more self-reliant and ‘pro-social’ society; in line with the RSA’s vision of social progress.

Fellows are welcome to ‘drop-in’ throughout the day, why not visit the Gerard Bar for a coffee or check out the new Fellowship Exhibition on the 1st floor whilst your here?
