Description

This edited collection spotlights the leadership behind contemporary examples of place-based community engagement in higher education. Through compelling first-person narratives, leaders from diverse institutions provide an insider’s perspective on addressing complex issues such as educational inequity, public health disparities, housing insecurity, gentrification, and
cultural preservation.
Each chapter offers both inspiration and practical guidance, presenting promising practices and lessons learned while redefining the concept and development of place-based engagement. The book highlights the transformative power of these efforts, demonstrating how institutions can creatively address societal challenges, build stronger community relationships, and drive institutional change.
A Co-Publication with Campus Compact.
