Story in Brief<\/a><\/dt>

<\/p>\n

On Wednesday February 24, Carleton held its 4th<\/sup> Annual Community Engagement Event at the MacOdrum Library. CFICE Principal Investigator Peter Andr\u00e9e and Community Campus Engagement (CCE) Brokering Working Group co-lead Jason Garlough presented at this event on CFICE’s planned CCE Brokering work, particularly with respect to an Ottawa brokerage platform.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday February 24, Carleton held its 4th<\/sup> Annual Community Engagement Event at the MacOdrum Library.\u00a0 The event ran from nine to noon and was packed with presentations and speakers from a variety of disciplines and groups such as Hub Ottawa, Hidden Harvest, and the Faculty of Engineering.\u00a0 Students, professors, and members from community organizations were invited to partake in discussions and networking sessions in order to connect with faculty and organizations regarding current research and project initiatives.<\/p>\n

Peter Andr\u00e9e<\/a>, CFICE\u2019s Principal Investigator, and Jason Garlough<\/a>, Executive Director of the Ottawa Eco-Talent Network, presented on CFICE and building stronger community-campus partnerships.<\/p>\n

With CFICE, Jason Garlough is on the community side of community-campus engagement (CCE) as a co-lead for the CCE Brokering Working group, which works to foster relationships between academics and the community at the national and local levels. In particular, Jason is involved with the development of an Ottawa brokerage platform that will build connections between Ottawa\u2019s various post-secondary institutions and community organizations.<\/p>\n

\"Jason<\/a>

Jason described the importance of CCE as making the best use of existing and available resources. Often this implies finding the right people for the job and getting results that can be put to use and implemented in the community.<\/p>\n

The Ottawa Eco-Talent Network<\/a> is one of CFICE\u2019s brokerage partners.\u00a0 Peter Andr\u00e9e describes the model they use as being unique from other models. \u201cWhat\u2019s so innovative about them is the whole mentoring piece. They often bring in retired skilled professionals to work with student groups to create stronger projects. That\u2019s a model that I haven\u2019t seen other people doing and if we can make that a core part of what the Ottawa brokering platform can help to facilitate, to not only connect students and faculty with community organizations but also with mentors, I think that\u2019s really cool.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jason also discussed a number of other brokerage models and what they offer for the community and academics.<\/p>\n

Peter Andree, CFICE PI, gives closing comments at Carleton’s Community Engagement Event.<\/p><\/div>\n

By forming a number of brokerage partnerships in Ottawa CFICE hopes to establish a collective impact<\/a> framework in order to implement research and connect post-secondary institutions to the community. FSG<\/a> defines collective impact as organizations from different sectors working together to solve specific issues towards a common goal.<\/p>\n

Although CFICE\u2019s Ottawa brokerage platform is still in its early stages, the Annual Community Engagement Event plays a role in reaching that aim. After attending CFICE\u2019s presentation, attendees can then gauge whether becoming a broker or a community partner is something that is of interest to them.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we bring the right stake holders around the table together and say how can we do this together, how we can envision it together, and build it together over time, and each of us can contribute what we can in terms of resources and capacity\u2026in the end it\u2019s not just a CIFCE project, but a collective one,\u201d said Peter.<\/p>\n

The event is also important in recognizing the community-engaged research that is going on at Carleton\u00a0University, celebrating it, and sharing in the lessons, Peter says.<\/p>\n
