Event Description

CU Expo 2011 is a Canadian-led conference designed to showcase the exemplars in community-university partnerships worldwide, and together to introduce creative ways of strengthening our local communities. Complex social issues require global perspectives to inform local action. Community-university (CU) partnerships can be an effective way to stimulate innovative solutions for the pressing concerns within our communities.

Proposals to present are due September 10, 2010 (please note this is a new, extended deadline from the one previously posted here)

The lead organization for the conference is the Centre for Community Based Research in Kitchener, ON. As a major partner, Community-Campus Partnerships for Health is fully supporting CU Expo in lieu of its own major conference in 2011. A discounted registration rate will be offered to CCPH members.
