There has been a joyful expansion of creative methodologies that adhere to values of community, shared power, and the meaningful participation and leadership by those most impacted by systems of oppression in the co-construction of knowledge. There is also a current risk of core terminology being co-opted and utilized by people and institutions that don\u2019t adhere to long-held values of solidarity and robust action.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year\u2019s conference emphasizes that community engaged research is essentially about <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shared meaning making<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which is at the core of co-creating our society and is critically important to a well-functioning democracy. We acknowledge the breadth and diversity of journeys that lead to community engaged research while always holding onto core values.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We invite submissions from those conducting community engaged research from diverse perspectives and locations. We encourage session designers to be creative in discussing decision-making and action in their methodologies and emphasizing how community engaged research integrates theory and practice and how these interact with various organizational, institutional, and sectoral contexts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Participants will want to know how community engaged research contributed to change.\u00a0 Just a few interests are: How did community engagement lead to informed policy change? How did community participants experience their engagement? How did the research process build on lived experience and how did it affect the lives of participants? How did engaged methodology improve grant impact reporting? In what ways did centering community lead to more grounded foundation grantmaking, more equitable municipal budgeting, or more effective institutional decisions? Whatever your location, this conference is most enriching when we share specific practice from our varying contexts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We intend to expand our community to all those who conduct AND who make community engaged research possible. The sessions will bring university scholars, community-based practitioners and researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, community members and organizations, philanthropy staff, grants professionals, youth and community organizers, artists, and activists together to share stories, strategies, practices, and solutions for action and the truly equitable co-construction of knowledge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Possible Session formats include:\u00a0<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full conference panel presentations<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Town hall meeting style topic with participant discussion\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Methodology workshops<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Issue area collaborations (multiple papers on the same topic of social action)<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paper presentations (combined into themes by organizers)<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Roundtable discussions\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Artistic and Multimedia sharing is welcome (as can be accommodated at the conference site)<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additional format will be considered as space and time permit.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-8898cad elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"8898cad\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a75ef83\" data-id=\"a75ef83\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c14f409 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c14f409\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Session proposals are due by midnight ET <strong>October 22, 2024<\/strong> through the online submission portal below.<\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ca1f3ca elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ca1f3ca\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d74d469\" data-id=\"d74d469\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3550ac5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3550ac5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><\/h3><ul><\/ul><h3><b style=\"font-size: inherit;
