2008 International Conference on Service-Learning
Engaging Your Campus and the World through International Service-Learning

Call for Proposals

Please consider submitting a proposal for the 2008 International Conference on Service-Learning held October 2-3, 2008 at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.

Utah Valley University is hosting an International Service-Learning Conference for campus teams and individuals involved in or interested in international service-learning. Participants will engage in a variety of workshops, panel discussions, poster presentations, plenary sessions, and other activities that will help campus teams and individuals learn about best practices in international service-learning. Additionally, participants will have an opportunity to develop a campus plan for international service-learning programs and academic courses. This conference may be beneficial for study abroad departments, service-learning faculty, international centers, volunteer and service-learning departments, and other organizations interested in service-learning at an international level.
We are seeking all types of proposals. Potential topics may include but are not limited to:

The Swearer Award has provided me with such an incredible venue for advocacy. At Penn, I've had the chance to speak to faculty, students, and alumni who are interested more than ever in supporting the civic mission of higher education."

-Mei Elansary, University of Pennsylvania, recipient of Campus Compact's Swearer Student Humanitarian Award
