Report: Profiling of Community Interaction activities at Stellenbosch University
Introduction
This page contains the accumulative results of the 2006 survey of community projects in the University as sanctioned by the Community Interaction Policy.
The rationale
for this report, is the dissemination of information to promote coordination
and collaboration on campus. The information is structured in such a way that
line managers may have access to accumulative information about the community
interaction activities in the institution. The Division for Community Interaction
takes the responsibility to facilitate the registration of projects.
The dean of each Faculty takes the responsibility for the registration of
projects managed by staff in departments within the faculties. Training is
available for Faculty Managers to enable them to give guidance to departments.
The Division for Community Interaction makes staff available who can assist
with the registration process. Please contact the Division in this respect.
Overview, content and context of report:
- The information
on this page reflects the data of the survey that was done in 2006.
- Departments from 12 faculties/divisions are active in Community Interaction.
In the 2003/4 survey it was 41.
- The database was restructured and no survey of projects were done in 2005.
- Registration of community projects are currently part of the strategic priority
of the University. Faculties and Departments whose data are not reflected
here, did not submit their registrations.
- Residential activities of students are not included in this survey. Student
bodies will conduct their own survey.
- Geographical area: Community interaction activities take place mostly in
and around Stellenbosch and the Western Cape, but in some cases it takes place
country wide.
A qualitative
analysis of recurring themes in community interaction activities will be done
after the 2006 survey in this space pertaining to:
Priorities in the South African society
Target groups
Outcomes of interactions
Academic integration
