Professor Towns-Andrews said: “This summit is a great example of what can happen when we work collaboratively across the University and with our external partners. It demonstrates the appetite for conversations about how we create organisations in which people can thrive. Universities have an important role to play in bringing research and practice together to challenge established ways of thinking and develop new approaches."
