Join us for CCPH's 11th Conference, "Creating the Future We Want to Be:
Transformation through Partnerships," May 12-15, 2010 in Portland, Oregon!

*Community-Campus Partnerships for Health (CCPH)* is convening our 11th
Conference, May 12-15, 2010 in Portland, Oregon, USA, to nurture a growing
network of community-campus partnerships that are striving to solve our most
pressing health, social and economic challenges.

The conference, "Creating the Future We Want to Be: Transformation through
Partnerships" promises to be CCPH's best yet as hundreds of community and
campus partners convene for 4 days of skill-building, networking and
agenda-setting! Whether you are new to community-based participatory
research (CBPR), service-learning or community-campus partnerships and
looking for basics to get started, or have been involved for years and
seeking more advanced knowledge and connections, this is one conference you
will not want to miss!

With its focus on Creating the Future We Want to Be, the conference seeks to
empower individuals and partnerships to create a just and sustainable
future, so that we need not be passive participants in the status quo or
mere witnesses to the change determined by others. With its focus on
Transformation through Partnerships, the conference seeks to highlight the
power of partnerships to lead and inspire transformation at all levels.

The conference agenda is designed to facilitate opportunities for
participants to engage in substantive discussions, gain new knowledge and
practical skills, think critically about their work and take action
individually and collectively. The conference features dynamic and inspiring
keynote presentations, facilitated discussions by peer group and interest
area, educational exhibits, community site visits, local social
justice-focused arts programming and many opportunities for informal
networking. The CCPH annual
award<http://depts.washington.edu/ccph/awards.html>for exemplary
community-campus partnerships is also presented at the
conference.
The community-campus partnership movement is indeed a global one. We extend
a special invitation to the leaders and members of national and
international networks of community-campus partnerships from around the
world to participate.
