These contributions are expected to be sustained (i.e., ongoing and\/or long-standing) and demonstrate a significant contribution to and impact on the community. Examples include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>impactful collaborations with government, non-governmental, or private-sector organizations, such as establishing community programs, applied joint research projects, or on-going events;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>leadership and active, ongoing involvement on government or community-based advisory bodies (the expectation is that the relationship with the organization is formalized and institutional, rather than individual\/personal);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>developing programs to enhance student engagement with the community, such as by facilitating co-op, internship, volunteer, and\/or community-based research opportunities, and that impact both the student experience and the work of community organizations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"eligibility\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eligibility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The award is open to all FPGA full-time faculty members at any rank. Collaborative teams are also eligible to apply with the understanding that at least half of the collaborators are full-time FPGA faculty members. Given the award criteria, the applicant (or Carleton members of a team) would be expected to have been at Carleton for at least 3-5 years. Candidates must apply directly. Anyone who considers a colleague to be worthy of the award should encourage them to apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"applications\">Application Package<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A complete application must include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Completed web application form;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Applicant\u2019s CV (or CV of each collaborator if applying as a team);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Applicant statement describing the nature and impact of the applicant\u2019s (or team\u2019s) contribution to community engagement;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At least one statement of support from the applicant\u2019s Chair\/Director or academic colleague;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At least one statement of support from community partner(s).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-25\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fpga\/fpga-community-engagement-excellence-award-application-form\/\">Apply Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"award-recognition\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Award Recognition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The award winner will receive a $1,000 taxable cash award, and a framed certificate.

Completed application packages must be received by <strong>Wednesday, March 18, 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The selection committee is chaired by the Associate Dean (Faculty Affairs). The award committee will normally consist of 3-4 FPGA faculty members selected by the Associate Dean. The committee shall make its recommendation to the Dean. Any questions relating to the criteria for the award should be directed to the Associate Dean (Faculty Affairs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Please note that since the Office of the Dean sponsors these awards, faculty members working in the Office of the Dean are not eligible for these awards nor are they able to provide nominations or letters of support for others.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"w-screen px-6 cu-section cu-section--white ml-offset-center md:px-8 lg:px-14\">\n    <div class=\"space-y-6 cu-max-w-child-5xl  md:space-y-10 cu-prose-first-last\">\n\n        \n            \n\n\n<header class=\"mb-6 cu-pageheader cu-component-updated md:mb-12\">\n    <h2 id=\"past-fpga-community-engagement-excellence-award-recipients\" class=\"cu-prose-first-last font-semibold !mt-2 mb-4 md:mb-6 relative text-2xl md:text-3xl lg:text-4xl lg:leading-[3rem] pb-4 after:w-8 after:absolute after:h-px after:bottom-0 after:bg-cu-red after:left-px\">\n        Past FPGA Community Engagement Excellence Award Recipients\n    <\/h2>\n\n    <\/header>\n    \n            <div class=\"relative cu-timeline cu-component\">\n            \n<div class=\"flex flex-col border-l border-solid cu-timeline-item md:gap-10 md:flex-row border-cu-black-100 md:border-none\">\n            <div class=\"flex-none w-full max-w-60 md:text-right md:border-r md:border-cu-black-100 md:border-solid\">\n            <p class=\"relative pl-6 mt-4 text-base italic cu-timeline-aside not-prose md:mt-0 md:py-6 text-cu-black-500 md:pr-10 md:pl-0\">\n                2025\n            <\/p>\n        <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"cu-prose cu-prose-dark cu-prose-first-last flex-1 mt-5 lg:mt-3.5 pb-10 pl-6 md:pl-0\">\n        <header class=\"cu-pageheader cu-component cu-prose-first-last \">\n            <h3 class=\"cu-prose-first-last font-semibold !mt-2 mb-4 md:mb-6 text-xl md:text-2xl lg:text-3xl lg:leading-[2.5rem]   after:left-px\">\n                \n            <\/h3>\n        <\/header>\n        \n\n<p><strong class=\"myprefix-text-bold\">Danette Nearing-Guibord<\/strong><br>Criminology and Criminal Justice<\/p>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"flex flex-col border-l border-solid cu-timeline-item md:gap-10 md:flex-row border-cu-black-100 md:border-none\">\n            <div class=\"flex-none w-full max-w-60 md:text-right md:border-r md:border-cu-black-100 md:border-solid\">\n            <p class=\"relative pl-6 mt-4 text-base italic cu-timeline-aside not-prose md:mt-0 md:py-6 text-cu-black-500 md:pr-10 md:pl-0\">\n                2024\n            <\/p>\n        <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"cu-prose cu-prose-dark cu-prose-first-last flex-1 mt-5 lg:mt-3.5 pb-10 pl-6 md:pl-0\">\n        <header class=\"cu-pageheader cu-component cu-prose-first-last \">\n            <h3 class=\"cu-prose-first-last font-semibold !mt-2 mb-4 md:mb-6 text-xl md:text-2xl lg:text-3xl lg:leading-[2.5rem]   after:left-px\">\n                \n            <\/h3>\n        <\/header>\n        \n\n<p><strong class=\"myprefix-text-bold\">Susan Phillips<\/strong><br>SPPA<\/p>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n        <\/div>\n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Criteria for Award The award will be granted on the basis of candidates\u2019 demonstrated contributions to building and enhancing institutional relationships between FPGA\/Carleton and local, provincial, national and\/or international community organizations.
