Community-Campus Partnerships for Health (CCPH) Conference 
International Association for Research on Service-learning and Community Engagement Annual Conference Proposals are due March 22, 2010 by 11:59 pm EST. The featured theme for this 10th annual conference is "International Perspectives: Crossing Boundaries through Research." Service-learning is valued as an active learning strategy across the globe; however, little is known about the ways that service-learning is similar or different in varied contexts. Understanding service-learning and community engagement from diverse cultural perspectives will add insight necessary for comparative research and to improve practice.

A special issue of Environmental Justice will be dedicated to critical perspectives on the intersection of environmental justice, participation, and the law. In recent years there has been an increasing interest in environmental justice and urban (EJU) questions in a broadening range of issues, including unequal exposure to air pollution, basic sanitation, and housing. At the same time, there has been a marked interest in questions of citizen participation in many domains, from urban policy to policing, and scholars have argued that in some settings this has led to a number of positive outcomes, from better decision-making to more civic engagement.
