Events | NCL in Action | Newcastle University

Join us at in-person and virtual events to explore the big rifts and shifts facing society.

Throughout the academic year, you are invited to get involved with NCL in Action and explore topics such as geopolitics, climate change, technology and AI and the economy. Together, we can learn more about these pillars that are shaping our future and build resilience in our professional and personal lives.

Coming soon

Registration for a series of thought-provoking lectures on the climate emergency, the role education plays in shaping our future, and the rise of misinformation in the media will open in Semester 2. You can also reconnect with your alumni community at in-person events in India.

Semester 1 events

We officially kickstarted the NCL in Action 25/26 programme with in-person events in New York, Newcastle, London, Malaysia and Singapore. Check out a selection of photos from the events below.
