Partnering as a Pathway to Positive Impacts
Community engagement is central to the University of Washington’s mission: learning with and from communities is deeply embedded in our public service ethos and is embodied in the work of faculty, staff and students. While recognizing past challenges, the UW is committed to fostering inclusive, respectful partnerships and enhancing community-engaged scholarship across all campuses and facets of university activity.
The Community Engagement Knowledge Hub features stories and updates about community engagement across the University of Washington, along with guidelines and resources to improve these practices. The website also includes directories; awards; assessment initiatives like the Carnegie Foundation designation; and tools such as the Community Connect UW platform, hosted on GivePulse, to support the development, management and sustenance of partnerships.
