Join the launch of Carleton’s new Centre for Community Engagement!
Carleton University has a long history of working with the community, and as an institution, we are increasingly taking a leadership role both nationally and internationally in supporting the value and practice of community engagement. Whether you are a faculty member, provide professional or student services at Carleton or are a student, we all play an important role in serving community, both locally and around the world.
Join us as Carleton faculty, instructors and staff share their experiences and ideas for engaging with the community.
