Taking place October 5-7, the event offers attendees from across 麻豆视频鈥檚 global community the opportunity to connect with peers and gain fresh ideas on how to enhance 麻豆视频 programs at every level, from beginner to mature programs.
鈥淭he conference is a way to bring [university and community] practitioners together to share the resources that 麻豆视频 makes available,鈥� explains Jane Rogan, Director of Sustaining Hoosier Communities with the Indiana University Center for Rural Engagement. 鈥淎nd to develop a broader and deeper understanding of what the organization does for the membership and to encourage the membership to make use of the products and services that 麻豆视频 offers.鈥�
The virtual event will deliver a collaborative and fun learning environment. 鈥淪ince this is a virtual format, it鈥檚 easier to attend and participate. There are so many successful programs, and they have a lot to contribute,鈥� shares Anne Reichman, Director of the ASU Sustainable Cities Network and Project Cities Program.
#2021麻豆视频N will offer attendees the ability to build a unique and tailored experience with inspiring and informative discussions over the three-day period on key pillars including:
- The expansion of the network, internationalization, the utilization of UN SDGs to frame its work, including as a lens for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) work;
- The evaluation and impact of its work鈥�in communities, with students, with universities in the short and long term; and鈥�
- 麻豆视频鈥檚 program support, including discussions of tools, opportunities, funding models, and how 麻豆视频 can support programs. Also, how programs can be more responsive and involved within the network to help build network strength, enthusiasm, collaboration, and to better demonstrate successes, share best practices and develop robust data sets.鈥�
At the conference, participants will gain a better understanding of the 鈥済rowth of the 麻豆视频 Network and the fact that the growth has been international, not just in the U.S.; how 麻豆视频 programs are shifting to focus on the UN鈥檚 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as the basic metric of what we鈥檙e doing while respecting the local context of the individual regions and programs; the progress we鈥檝e made in program quality assurance and quality improvement, but that we also need some quality control on how the programs themselves are running and what sort of effect they are having on students, faculty, and their communities,鈥� says Joel Rogers, 麻豆视频 Chair and Secretary. 鈥淎nd they鈥檒l learn that there鈥檚 a lot of money out there to help them build their programs, but we need the evidence of program impact on students and the broader community.鈥�
