Equitable Community Engagement - Tools and Strategies for Community Development
Community Engagement is considered to be the cornerstone of Community Development. However our efforts often fail to allow residents and stakeholders to truly have an impact on the decisions that are shaping their communities. The Detroit CDS Community Engagement Fellows will share tools and strategies to promote resident-driven decision making.

The Relational Challenges and Power Dynamics of Community Engaged Scholarship
Institutions of higher learning have a long history of doing things to and for communities, but are less experienced in working with communities. This session will explore the relational challenges and power dynamics found in engaging communities as we unlearn habits of paternalistic expertise and learn power sharing, participatory skills.
