Global to Local: Call for Applications

Community-engaged scholars gain insights into community systems that address community needs
using informed and authentic methods. These insights can be applied in local and global communities. The University of North Georgia is inviting papers on local and global community engagement to be published in an open-access compendium. Please see the announcement from the compendium organizers below.   

Community Engagement Compendium: Local is Global

The University of North Georgia is issuing a Call for Papers for an open access community engagement compendium. This compendium will undergo rigorous blind peer review to ensure the quality of the scholarship.

The focus of this compendium is the linkage between local, regional, national, and international engagement. How does local engagement impact national engagement? How can lessons learned from international engagement activities cross over to local engagement projects?

The editors encourage submissions related to the following:

· Outcomes of regional engagement initiatives
   International impact of local and regional engagement projects
   Mandatory vs. Volunteer Engagement
   How to measure scholarly engagement
   Community Engagement and P&T

Please submit all papers to upng@ung.edu.

Proposal Criteria:
All submissions must be original unpublished work.
Papers must be between 5,000-9,000 words in length.
Citations must follow MLA or APA standards.
