UK Parliament Week 2018
Across the country between the 12-18 November 2018, people celebrated and learned about the UK Parliament, with the School of Social Sciences’ Politics and International Relations department, alongside Nottingham Civic Exchange joining them. Throughout the week we hosted a series of events and activities to showcase the value of engagement with politics for our students and the public.
The week provided opportunities for students and members of the public to work with NTU’s academics and partners. Check out the event listings below to see the events we hosted. #UKPW18
