Innovation & Design Initiatives

Through our partnership with the National Museum & Center For Service, we are working with campuses to envision ways to recognize and honor service on campuses and in communities through campus-based exhibitions.  Over the coming year, we will convene interested groups to join us for visioning sessions and brainstorming. Our eventual goal is to pilot museums of service on several campuses and build resources that can be used to scale and expand this important venture to other campuses.

Campus Cogenerate is a new initiative created in partnership with Cogenerate that focuses on the power generated when older and younger people come together to engage with communities in solving problems, bridging divides, and co-creating a better future. Over the coming year, Campus Compact and Cogenerate will convene campuses already doing this work, spotlight promising practices, and build expanded opportunities for cogenerational collaboration across the Campus Compact network.

The HUD + Higher Ed Engagement Network aims to build strong relationships between the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and higher education to create inclusive, sustainable, and thriving communities. Through the network, colleges and universities will receive tools, resources, and technical assistance to directly engage with and advance HUD initiatives on the ground.
