Competing the RED Global Engagement Award
Stage 1: Registration
Ready to become a more globally engaged individual? Getting started is simple! Just follow these steps:
-
Log in
-
Click the ‘Pathways’ tab.
-
Select the RED Global Engagement Award pathway.
-
Click ‘Start’.
Once registered, you can begin logging your activities right away.
Stage 2: Points Submission
To complete the award, you’ll need to earn at least 25 points by completing a range of globally and culturally focused activities. Points are allocated based on the activity's level and time commitment - the more time and effort required, the more points the activity is worth.
If you are new to the award but have already completed some of this activity, you can backdate anything you have done since you started at the university!
Explore our points guide to learn how the system works.
Reflection
You do not need to upload any evidence to earn points. Instead, for each point you claim, we will ask you to write a short reflection of at least 100 words explaining the nature of your activity and how the activity made you more globally engaged.
Your reflection should be:
- Personal
- Specific to your experience
- Explain how it has helped you as an individual.
Stage 3: Global Engagement Advocacy
This is your opportunity to demonstrate how you're promoting respect for diversity, open-mindedness, cultural learning, and awareness of global issues at the 伊人直播app or beyond.
You have the freedom to choose how you present your advocacy; this could be through:
- A poster talk or RED Conference presentation
- A university or external conference
- Speaking at an online or in-person forum
- Creating social media content (e.g. for Careers socials or another organisation)
- Writing a Student Life blog, podcast, or reflection
- A paragraph explaining the award’s value in a cover letter or interview context
Check out our Advocacy page for submission guidelines and more information.
Write This Yourself
Please do not use AI to write your reflections and Advocacy sections. We want to understand your unique Global Engagement journey, and AI-generated content is often too generic. Writing it yourself also helps you practise non-AI assisted communication skills. This is an important skill, as employers can detect AI-written content, and relying on it may negatively affect future applications.
Final stage: Award Completion
Once you have completed all steps of the RED Global Engagement pathway, including submitting your points, reflections, advocacy, and the after survey, the RED Awards Team will review your submission within a few weeks.
If you are successful, we will email you your RED Global Engagement Award Certificate. Your achievement will also be recorded on your RISIS profile and included in both your Diploma Supplement Annex and the graduation brochure.
If you need to make changes and resubmit, please reach out to the team we will support you through this process.
