The University of Exeter and Devon County Council are working together as partners through our Devon County Civic University Agreement, to support Devon to be a thriving, sustainable and prosperous place to live and work. In so doing this agreement recognises that health, education, culture, environment, and economy are all intertwined.
Working together as Devon partners through our Civic University Agreement, our ambition is to generate benefits for our County, its businesses, and its people.
To begin with this agreement focuses on three specific areas that support this overarching mission:
- Thriving futures for young people
- Innovation and skills for a sustainable future
- Carbon considered housing for all
At the heart of the agreement is a belief that partnership is the catalyst that sets progress in motion.
Partnerships within our county are now more important than ever, as we seek to ensure a thriving yet sustainable economy, healthy and happy people, a vibrant culture, and a spirit that connects us all with a pride of place and a determination to keep moving forward together.
