G'Day All --

Do colleges or universities in your area provide on-line resources that support civic action, community service, and/or development ??

Here are some examples from the University of Wisconsin, in the United States:

1. Community Development Planning Curriculum -- Department of Urban and Regional Planning, University of Wisconsin

2. COMM-ORG: The Online Conference on Community Organizing and Development -- University of Wisconsin

3. Community Economic Development: People, Courses, Research -- Center for Agricultural & Applied Economics, University of Wisconsin

4. Center for Community Economic Development -- Cooperative Extension Service, University of Wisconsin

6. Grants Information Center -- University of Wisconsin at Madison

If institutions of higher education in your locality provide web pages or links of any similar sort, you are cordially invited to visit the "International and U.S.A. Students' Civic Action Network E-Mail Groups" site, at:

... and consider responding to the "Invitation and Challenge" that you will find there.

I hope the above information will be of interest. If you have questions, comments, or suggestions, please feel free to share them.

Best wishes, Dave Matthews
