About the Community-Engaged Research Huddle: What infrastructures are necessary to grow, support, and sustain community-engaged research efforts? While building infrastructure often involves capacity development, it also requires the design and implementation of systems and norms that place people and communities at the center. Through collaborative discussion and problem-solving, this Huddle explores key frameworks and ideas within the context of participants’ community-engaged research projects, campuses, and communities. Topics may include metrics for community-engaged research, tenure and promotion, supporting researcher networks across scales, building systems for shared knowledge and resources, and frameworks for institutionalizing community engagement. Faculty, staff, graduate students, and anyone interested in or working on community-engaged research are welcome to join.
