What is 'community engagement'?

Community engagement is “collaboration between institutions of higher education and their larger communities (local, regional, national, global) for the mutually beneficial exchange of knowledge and resources in a context of partnership and reciprocity”.

(Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, n.d.) [1]
