This document discusses a research project evaluating community-engaged scholarship (CES) between Wilfrid Laurier University and community partners. The project has three objectives: 1) assess current CES and strategies to increase it, 2) evaluate benefits and challenges of CES partnerships, and 3) understand transformations from community engagement. Advisory groups provided input into key issues. Early findings show the importance of relationships and balancing power between partners. The research aims to learn from community partners and build structures for equitable, effective, and sustainable partnerships through a process sensitive to both community and university contexts.
The document discusses a reflection on 10 years of community-based learning and research on food security and sustainability at the University of British Columbia. It describes projects like the Land, Food and Community series which used community inquiry and engagement approaches to address issues of fragmentation in knowledge, relations, and disconnect from food systems. Key lessons learned include that institutional change can start in the classroom and expand through community-based learning, collaborative spaces for integrative issues are important, and relationship building through iterative action research leads to positive outcomes over time.
This document summarizes a study on community engagement in translational research. It found that while faculty and community partners generally agreed on the benefits of community engagement, there were some differences in attitudes around timelines and resource allocation. Both groups saw a need for more faculty training, particularly in cultural competency, community dialogue skills, and power sharing. The study was limited by its sampling methods but implications include using experienced faculty as mentors and addressing gaps in expectations between researchers and partners.
This document provides a top 5 list highlighting positive qualities of a new employee named Mary at SGA. It describes her as funny, creative, full of bright ideas, having great taste, and just being good people. Examples are given of her humor, creative skills in reworking an advertisement, ideas contributed at work, taste in decorating and music, and willingness to help others through volunteer work. Co-workers provide quotes praising her work ethic, ability to stay calm under pressure, friendliness, willingness to help others learn, and being both a good coworker and friend. The document serves as an "ode" welcoming Mary and hoping others will soon experience why she is valued.
The York University - TD Community Engagement Centre (CEC) promotes accessibility and social justice through partnerships between the community and the university. The CEC mandate includes enriching student experience, promoting shared responsibility for communities, reducing barriers to post-secondary education, encouraging collaborative research, and providing opportunities for new collaborations. The CEC supports community-engaged scholarship and houses several committees and working groups focused on outreach, research, fundraising, evaluation, inter-professional education, public education, and access.
This document provides an overview of engaged scholarship and community engagement in higher education. It discusses the history and evolving definitions of these concepts. Engaged scholarship integrates teaching, research, and service through mutually beneficial partnerships between higher education institutions and their communities. While challenging, institutionalizing engaged scholarship requires support and recognition from universities through changes to policies, practices, and culture.
This document discusses strategies for institutional change to promote community engagement at universities. It provides an overview of the Carnegie Engagement Framework's core components, including mission, leadership, infrastructure, and faculty. As a case study, it examines York University's mission and lessons learned from its President's Task Force on Community Engagement. The task force informed York's strategic plan to enhance community engagement over the next 10-15 years. The document also outlines Carnegie's requirements and potential strategies to recognize and reward community engagement through scholarship, incentives, internationalization, knowledge mobilization, accountability, differentiation, advancement, and curricular reform.

This document summarizes an interdisciplinary food security partnership model between Lakehead University and community partners in Northwestern Ontario. The Food Security Research Network brings together faculty, students, and community members to develop resilient local food systems through activities like community service learning, research, and education. A case study highlights how one professor integrated community engaged learning into her courses, involving students in community-driven research and knowledge creation. The model demonstrates how knowledge can be generated within community contexts through diverse networks and relationships. Next steps discussed rethinking university structures and roles to better support collaborative, place-based models of knowledge generation.
La Unión Europea ha propuesto un nuevo paquete de sanciones contra Rusia que incluye un embargo al petróleo. El embargo prohibiría las importaciones de petróleo ruso por vía marítima, pero permitiría el tránsito a través de oleoductos durante unos meses más para algunos países muy dependientes del petróleo ruso. Este sexto paquete de sanciones de la UE también incluye la desconexión del mayor banco ruso, Sberbank, del sistema SWIFT y la prohibición de tres canales estatales de televisión r
Nella presentazione troverete un estratto dal libro "Conciliazione e Strategia" di Gian Marco Boccanera. L’estratto pone l’accento sul ruolo dei Professionisti nel rilancio del Sistema-Paese-Italia: il loro valore aggiunto passa attraverso due direttrici che sono Competenza ed Eupetenza. La prima è il possesso riconosciuto di determinate abilità e preparazioni tecniche, mentre la seconda (neologismo di Gian Marco Boccanera) è l’arte di Rendere Facile, Facilitare i rapporti.
Il 3 giugno 2009, Confindustria La Spezia ha presentato ‘Un ponte in rosa’ – un reportage di storie al femminile tra Italia e Cina.
