Toward Transformative Engagement: Reflections and Provocations for Research Futures

Developed by the Community Engaged Scholarship Institute (CESI), Toward Transformative Engagement is a reflective and thought-provoking resource that explores the challenges and possibilities of community-engaged scholarship in complex times. Emerging from a series of dialogues held between 2021 and 2025, this publication captures the voices and insights of community engagement practitioners and scholar-practitioners across academic and community settings.

Through shared provocations, contributor quotes, and field notes, the document invites readers to engage in deeper learning, dialogue, and collaboration toward social justice and transformative engagement. It serves as a valuable tool for scholars, practitioners, and community organizations committed to advancing community-based and community-engaged research.
