Fusion is the combination of inspirational teaching, world-class research and the latest thinking in the professions which creates a continuous and fruitful
exchange of knowledge that stimulates new ideas, learning and thought leadership. (Bournemouth
University, 2014)

[Carnival Futures engaged] cultural organisations and other stakeholders in planning for the future of the Notting Hill Carnival […] working closely with Carnival Village and other organisations
within the carnival community to engage stakeholders in the process of scenario planning, and to consider how their external relationships
and internal capabilities might need to be adapted as Carnival grows in scale and reach.
(King’s College London, 2014)Carnival Futures: Notting Hill Carnival
2020 incorporated many fusion aspects but was not fusion
funded

I know sometimes people are quick to say what's wrong but not as fast to give praise, so I just wanted to let you know that I have enjoyed watching the videos and reading
the assigned chapters. While I was advancing through the material all I could think of was ‘I wish other units had been like this, I would've learn so much more!’
