Book excerpt: Ausgehend von der gleichnamigen Jahrestagung des internationalen Hochschulnetzwerks "Bildung durch Verantwortung", die im Herbst 2022 zum ersten Mal in Österreich stattfgefunden hat, nimmt das Themenheft "Campus Community Partnerships" (CCPs) in den Blick, d.h. die Zusammenarbeit von Hochschulen und Community-Partner:innen mit der Zielsetzung, sowohl wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzungen als auch gesellschaftlich relevante Problemstellungen sinnstiftend zu verknüpfen. Einen aktuellen empirischen Überblick zur Zusammenarbeit von Hochschulen und Praxispartner:innen (CCPs) gibt es für den deutschsprachigen Raum derzeit noch nicht, auch fehlt es nach wie vor an systematischer empirischer Forschung. Das Themenheft widmet sich dieser Forschungslücke auf Initiative des Forschungsnetzwerks "Hochschulen Engagiert Österreich", ein 2019 gegründeter Zusammenschluss von Wissenschaftler:innen unterschiedlicher Hochschulen in Österreich, die sich mit dem Thema Zusammenarbeit zwischen Hochschule und Gesellschaft in ihrer Forschung und Lehre beschäftigen und dabei das Ziel verfolgen, wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse zu sammeln, für den österreichischen Hochschulkontext zu erschließen und auf diese Weise das Thema in Österreich systematisch voranzutreiben.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examine how your university can help solve the complex problems of your community Community Outreach Partnership Centers (COPC) sponsored by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) have identified civic engagement and community partnership as critical themes for higher education. This unique book addresses past, present, and future models of university-community partnerships, COPC programs, wide-ranging social work partnerships that involve teaching, research, and social change, and innovative methods in the processes of civic engagement. The text recognizes the many professions, schools, and higher education institutions that contribute to advancing civic engagement through university-community partnerships. One important contribution this book makes to the literature of civic engagement is that it is the first publication that significantly highlights partnership contributions from schools of social work, which are rediscovering their community roots through these initiatives. University-Community Partnerships: Universities in Civic Engagement documents how universities are involved in creative individual, faculty, and program partnerships that help link campus and community-partnerships that are vital for teaching, research, and practice. Academics and practitioners discuss outreach initiatives, methods of engagement (with an emphasis on community organization), service learning and other teaching/learning methods, research models, participatory research, and “high-engagement” techniques used in university-community partnerships. The book includes case studies, historical studies, policy analysis, program evaluation, and curriculum development. University-Community Partnerships: Universities in Civic Engagement examines: the increasing civic engagement of institutions of higher education civic engagement projects involving urban nonprofit community-based organizations and neighborhood associations the developmental stages of a COPC partnership problems faced in evaluating COPC programs civic engagement based on teaching and learning how pre-tenure faculty can meet research, teaching, and service requirements through university-community partnerships developing an MSW program structured around a single concentration of community partnership how class, race, and organizational differences are barriers to equality in the civic engagement process University-Community Partnerships: Universities in Civic Engagement is one of the few available academic resources to address the importance of social work involvement in COPC programs. Social work educators, students, and practitioners, community organizers, urban planners, and anyone working in community development will find it invaluable in proving guidance for community problem solving, and creating opportunities for faculty, students, and community residents to learn from one another.

Download or read book Understanding Campus Community Partnerships in Conflict Zones written by Dalya Yafa Markovich and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-17 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the opportunities and limitations of campus-community partnerships in Israel. In a conflict-ridden society with a struggling civic culture, the chapters examine partnerships at ten academic institutions, focusing on the micro-processes through which these partnerships work from the perspectives of students, NGOs, and disadvantaged communities. The editors and contributors analyse the range of strategies and cultural repertoires used to construct, maintain, negotiate and resist the various partnerships. Evaluating the various challenges raised by campus-community partnerships exposes the institutional and epistemological divides between academia and the community, and thus offers valuable insights into the ways partnerships can contribute to transformative change in conflict zones. This book will be of interest and value to researchers and students of campus-community partnerships as well as the anthropology of inclusion-exclusion and civic culture.

Download or read book Sustainable Solutions University Community Partnerships written by B. D. Wortham-Galvin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the role of the university? Current systems may stress research output, but Wortham-Galvin, Allen, and Sherman seek to re-establish the importance of teaching and service in the work of the 21st-century university. The Sustainable Solutions series shares Portland State University's experience of community-engaged teaching and research. With a focus on sustainability, we see that such collaboration is vital to making Portland one of the world's most sustainable cities. Volume 2, University-Community Partnerships, builds on the themes introduced in Volume 1, Let Knowledge Serve the City, to explore how these partnerships play out in practice. Covering 13 projects, which range from supporting local artisans and researching food access, to sharing Indigenous history and decolonizing perceptions of knowledge, readers receive pragmatic advice on working with community organizations. Authors also offer critical reflection on how theories of engagement have structured PSU's work and how their findings impact our very understanding of partnership. This reader-friendly text provides an ideal introduction to anyone wishing to learn more about models of effective collaboration and how to put these into practice. Explained through the context of specific projects, the book offers both inspiration and practical guidance to anyone -- in local government, academia, or the third sector -- looking to set up productive community-university partnerships.
