Meetings Overview

Each year, the Center for Community Engagement hosts several systemwide meetings, forums, and workshops. The purpose and participants of these gatherings vary greatly - some focus on building participant skills, some highlight best practices, and others emphasize developing action agendas for future efforts.

Our meetings provide an opportunity to bring together educators who are doing similar work to discuss, learn and reflect on the service-learning movement in the CSU and across the nation. We hope that you can join us for future meetings and find information about past meetings helpful.

Upcoming Meetings

The theme for this year's conference, From Local to Global Perspectives, reflects how the blurring of boundaries and borders between people is affecting many aspects of higher education including student learning, curriculum, faculty research and institutional missions. During this CSU conference, the "from local to global perspectives" lens will be used to learn about the interdependent connection between local efforts, national priorities, and ultimately, our global environment from the wide-ranging efforts of our faculty, students, and community partners.
