GM Policy Hub seminar series
Our monthly GM Policy Hub seminar series focuses on a different regional policy agenda each month.
Join us for our monthly GM Policy Hub seminar series. Each month, we focus on a different regional policy agenda, with a University of Manchester academic presenting their research on the topic, followed by an audience Q&A.
Come along to hear about research relating to your work. Following the presentation, take the opportunity to grab a sandwich and network. Meet the academic and the Policy@Manchester team or get to know others working in policy areas across GM.
