An article written on the impact of CESI’s Research Shop has recently been published in the Journal of Higher Education Outreach and Engagement. The Research Shop works with local and regional organizations to carry out high-impact community-engaged scholarship by training and employing graduate students to conduct community-engaged research.
The Community Engaged Scholarship Institute (CESI) is excited to announce the recent publication of a Research Shop project conducted in collaboration with Hospice Wellington.
At CESI, we believe that community engaged scholarship (CES) has the potential to offer high impact to both community partners and researchers and to spark positive, evidence-informed change within the community. CES is a “collaboration between institutions of higher education and their larger communities for the mutually beneficial exchange of knowledge and resources in a context of partnership and reciprocity" (Jordan, 2007).
Are you looking for support launching a social enterprise idea? Would you like to work with graduate students from the University of Guelph? The Sandbox, a collaboration between the John F. Wood Centre and the Guelph Lab, is currently recruiting community partners for its 2022-2023 iteration.
CESI’s director, Elizabeth Jackson was recently featured on the Below the Radar Podcast, an innovative podcast with the goal of “amplifying ideas that fly below the radar”.

Through their experiences working with CESI and the Research Shop, many students have the opportunity to learn more about knowledge mobilization, which is an integral element of critical community engaged research. Knowledge mobilization plays a key role in allowing the exchange of information and knowledge from the academic community to a wider audience.
CESI is offering a bursary covering the cost of one course in the Certificate in Knowledge Mobilization for three graduate students or postdocs at the University of Guelph.
