Campus Action Planning Virtual Institute – Jan 12-14

Posted by Campus Compact on November 17, 2026

Higher education is at an inflection point. Communities face complex, connected challenges, such as economic inequality, democratic disengagement and environmental vulnerability, that no single institution can solve alone. Colleges and universities bring real assets to that work: teaching, research, partnerships, economic influence and the next generation of leaders. Many campuses still need to get organized, committed and strategic enough to use those assets fully. Cost, access, and trust are real challenges, and meeting them with practical solutions is part of earning the public’s confidence.

Campus Action Planning for Civic & Community Engagement (CAP) helps institutions reaffirm higher education’s public purpose. It does this by using institutional power and resources as a whole to promote a thriving democracy and community flourishing.

In a virtual setting, CAP teams that have been developing their Campus Action Plans will continue making progress toward their plan while those newer to CAP framework will have the chance to lay the groundwork needed to establish civic and community engagement as an institutional priority and core function.
