ICEP Resources

The world is awash in American service learning materials. What is hard to find—because it is scattered and often not in English—is the innovative material being produced in Eastern and Central Europe , in the CIS, in Asia , Africa and the Middle East . What is also missing is the practical stuff—model agreements that other universities have used with their NGO partners, sample projects students can do, advice about organizing a civic engagement office.

Resources is ICEP’s open library of such materials developed by partners from Estonia to South Africa . Feel free to borrow anything useful, please just have the courtesy to give credit to the author.

And please help our library grow. Contribute your syllabi, training manuals, forms and other program documents, community partner orientation packets, faculty development programs, motions put to your university senate to institute a civic engagement program, curricular materials from your faculty, descriptions of special majors (for example, NGO management), etc.—no matter what language they are in!

When you contribute, please include contact information for you and your institution including email, and the essential line: Copyright [your name] 200X at the bottom of the first page.
