Duke Alums Engage is a Duke Alumni Association initiative that integrates the concepts of service learning, civic engagement, and reflection. Through this program, Duke alums are invited to examine and address the social and political issues impacting their local communities. Duke Alums Engage helps alumni tap into the spirit of Duke’s commitment to knowledge in the service of society – alumni become directly engaged in service in a uniquely Duke way.
Connect with other Duke alumni and friends.
Explore the principles of civic engagement and service learning.
Work side by side on a project tailored to the needs of your local community.
To help you create and execute a successful project, we have worked
with past Duke Alums Engage participants to develop these tools.
The dates are set for DAE 2012: April 21-29
In addition to the 37 cities served by DAE in the United States in 2011, projects also were held in Bangalore, Dubai, London, Shanghai, and Toronto. Overall participation has nearly doubled since the Duke Alumni Association launched the program in 2009. Check out our past projects to get inspired for DAE 2012.
