I’m Mark Charlton, Associate Director of Sustainable Development Impact and Net Zero Research Director at De Montfort University (DMU), Leicester, United Kingdom.  I’m passionate about universities working with businesses and communities on ideas to tackle climate change and achieve the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. I am an advocate of Public Engagement in Research and Citizen Science as well as Service-Learning, community-based learning, civic learning, the scholarship of engagement, learning-linked volunteering and all the other ways we describe students sharing their skills and knowledge beyond the campus.  I currently lead the United Nations Academic Impact Initiative Global Academic Hub for SDG 16 at DMU. I am a PhD Scholar, researching the impacts of civic engagement on students’ political participation (SDG16). Contact me via mcharlton@dmu.ac.uk
