Abstract

For more than a century, scholars have been interested in promoting community-based learning to develop students’ agency and civic engagement. While community-university engagement (CUE) matured into an academic discipline of its own, questions about its impact on local communities remain largely ignored. This study examines the landscape of CUE in Southeastern Europe and its impact on local capacity development. One hundred eighty-seven faculty from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, and Kosovo completed a self-administered survey. The results link CUE programs with increased community assets, functioning and transformational capacity, and underscore the importance of learning with community stakeholders to promote local development.
