Social Responsiveness Report launched

The Institutional Planning Dept (IPD) has launched its 2008 Social Responsiveness Report. The report aims to stimulate ongoing debate within the university and more broadly on UCT's role in addressing development challenges in society.

It features a number of case studies from around campus, including the work of the university in response to the 2008 xenophobia crisis and the development of new and effective TB vaccines. Top DVC Prof Jo Beall and the IPD's Sonwabo Ngcelwane and director Judy Favish were at the launch.
