The Centre for the Advancement of Social Impact and Transformation at Stellenbosch University supports Social Impact Committees across faculties and environments to drive meaningful, context-specific social impact.

These committees play a vital role in embedding social impact and transformation into academic, research, and institutional activities.

Each committee works collaboratively to align social impact initiatives with community needs, faculty expertise, and university-wide transformation goals. They serve as a bridge between academia and society, ensuring that Stellenbosch University’s knowledge and resources contribute to positive change and society betterment.
