This document discusses measuring the impact of higher education on social innovation. It notes that while impact has become a popular concept, universities have always aimed to serve society. Measuring impact is challenging as it involves both qualitative and quantitative factors. The workshop will discuss how higher education contributes to social innovation and how this is currently being measured and monitored within universities and their effects on society. The impact of universities is complex and involves things like research, teaching, culture, projects and generating trust.

This document summarizes the findings of a global study on organizational structures that support community-university research partnerships (CURPs). The study included a global survey of 336 respondents from 53 countries as well as 12 case studies. Key findings include that most higher education institutions have created structures to support CURPs in the last 10 years, but there is still a large variation in how CURPs are conceptualized and practiced globally. National policies that explicitly include community engagement and research in higher education tend to encourage the institutionalization of CURPs. Specific funding programs and knowledge-sharing platforms at the national level also help strengthen CURPs. While many countries have made progress, true co-creation of knowledge and accountability to communities is still lacking in most partnerships.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
