Faculty of Dentistry SoE-SI Training
15 September 2026 |
The Community Engagement Unit (CEU) held a Scholarship of Engagement for Societal Impact (SoE-SI) Training with colleagues from the Faculty of Dentistry.
The session, which forms part of the University Capacity Development Grant (UCDP)-funded project, Strengthening the Scholarship of Engagement for Societal Impact (SoE-SI), was facilitated by Dr. Samantha van Schalkwyk, Acting Director of the Community Engagement Unit, and Mr. Ridwaan Mallum, Digital Transformation Specialist & Enterprise Solutions Architect.
The training focused on introducing colleagues to UWC’s Scholarship of Engagement Model and providing guidance on how to capture and showcase their community-engaged work through the SoE-SI web portal.
Colleagues had an opportunity to discuss the Scholarship Model, connect it to the work they are already doing, and share some of the projects and initiatives they are involved in within communities.
A special thank you to Prof. Veerasamy Yengopal, Dean of the Faculty of Dentistry, Prof. Khabiso Ramphoma, Community Engagement and Outreach Coordinator, Department of Community Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry, and all colleagues from the Faculty of Dentistry for their participation and engagement in the session.
