As a way to build community and capacity among faculty and staff, a UW-wide listserv and series of conversations about community engagement was launched in Fall 2023. Entitled Cultivating Connections for Community Engagement, the purpose of these conversation spaces is to connect with others across the UW who practice, support, or are interested in community engagement; to explore what’s happening across the UW in this space; and to contribute ideas and perspectives for nurturing collective capacity for community-engaged research and learning.
