Universities are increasingly embracing the notion of service-learning as a model to integrate scholarly work and community engagement. Service-learning paradigms have inspired the global involvement of students and faculty with diverse communities. These connections must continue to be explored.

The symposium will be held at the University of Indianapolis, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA, and surrounding community partnership sites. This second joint international symposium aims to bring international teachers, researchers, practitioners, and community leaders to present their research, teaching, and community service experiences and to explore paradigms for service-learning in the 21st century.
