The Evolution and Impacts of the CU Expo Movement

Abstract

As we approach the ten-year anniversary of the CUexpo movement, it is important to step back and reflect on the origins, evolution and impact of these events. This session will bring together key organizers from each of the four previous CUexpos (Saskatoon, Victoria, Winnipeg and Waterloo) to talk about the origins and outcomes of each meeting and the role that these CUexpos have played in communities and community-based research. The session will engage the audience on the impacts of these events on their own work and on their communities.
