Commitment

rominaabuan — 2026-04-15 13:10:43 UTC

De La Salle University as the Uniservitate Asia & Oceania Regional Hub (UA&ORH), reaffirms its commitment to accompany member institutions through virtual, hybrid or in-person structured training, mentorship, and collaborative participation.

We work towards regional student engagement and an Inter-Institutional Mentorship program while documenting all regional experiences and successes through three (3) publications

Rotating Leadership Roles

m_cinque1 — 2026-04-15 13:10:47 UTC

Introduce time-bound and rotating governance positions within the Hubs and participating institutions to ensure diversity of perspectives, inclusivity, and leadership development across institutions and regions

Mario Olmos - UDB El Salvador

2026-04-15 13:11:13 UTC

A central coordinating body comprising elected regional leaders is a good option for governing the network.

rominaabuan — 2026-04-15 13:11:32 UTC

UA&ORH commits to sustaining operations through dedicated staffing and financial planning. Approximately funds annually will be allocated to support three hub personnel, ensuring continuity of programs and virtual platforms.

International engagement remains a priority, attendance at global events will be contingent on available funding.

Sustainability through Partnership

2026-04-15 13:11:38 UTC

Working together in partnership to develop international shared courses/modules that provide students with global perspectives, taking service learning from a more localised/community focus and adding a global element.

We can increase the number of joint research.

2026-04-15 13:14:18 UTC

Pursue joint grant application

Sustainability in service-learning depends on strong institutional commitment. Support from leadership (e.g., President and mission-driven units), integration into the curriculum, long-term community partnerships, faculty engagement, and continuous reflection and evaluation are essential to ensure lasting impact.

Network Administrative Organizations

2026-04-15 13:18:36 UTC

Network Administrative Organizations (NAOs) are a form of network governance in which a separate, centralized entity is established to coordinate and manage interactions among multiple interdependent actors (Provan & Kenis, 2008). In complex collaborative settings, such as international higher education initiatives, NAOs play a critical role in facilitating coordination, aligning activities, and supporting collective outcomes (Provan & Milward, 1995). Moreover, their effectiveness is closely linked to their ability to build trust and legitimacy among network participants, which are essential for sustaining long-term collaboration (Human & Provan, 2000). I suggest exploring these ideas for UNISERVITATE. Greetings from Bethlehem University.

Tres aspectos: diversificación de apoyos y recursos, propuesta de valor nítida para las instituciones miembro e institucionalización interna en cada universidad participante

2026-04-15 13:20:07 UTC

Support for funding opportunities

2026-04-15 13:22:15 UTC

Helping partners find each other, identifying relevant calls, and providing targeted support for grant development would significantly strengthen collaboration and funding success across the network.

As a Network, I support the idea of sharing research ideas, sharing Service Learning pedagogies

2026-04-15 13:25:30 UTC

Combining service learning with career support and professional orientation for the students

2026-04-15 13:27:35 UTC

Pair SL with structured mentoring and reflection so students can translate their community work into clear career skills and employability outcome

Supporting secretariat

2026-04-15 13:30:58 UTC

In a rotating chair system, there might be a need of a permanent supporting secretariat to ensure continuity, institutional memory and neutral facilitation, while leadership and representation rotate among partners.

2026-04-15 13:53:29 UTC

The idea of a consortium was mentioned. A consortium operates as independent yet united institutions collaborating under a shared framework. As a university drawing from our existing experience in multi-sectoral consortiums involving universities, civil society, and government bodies, we pool resources, share costs, and work jointly on projects guided by a steering committee. This structure ensures financial stability, greater influence, and sustained engagement, effectively distributing responsibilities while maximizing our collective impact. (University of San Agustin)

Sustainability

2026-04-15 13:56:25 UTC

We can ensure sustainability through shared funding, cost-sharing, and the pooling of expertise and resources. With a clear governance structure and active member engagement, supported by flexible programs and digital tools, the consortium will remain strong, relevant, and effective. (University of San Agustin)

How do we integrate service Learning with competence-based curriculum?

2026-04-15 14:12:20 UTC

CHRIST University

2026-04-15 15:35:10 UTC

Greetings from CHRIST University.

The Hub could include one representative from each member institution to ensure joint, inclusive, and participatory decision-making. It is also suggested that the Hub convene meetings to plan activities, review progress, and collaboratively organise events. Additionally, for events requiring physical participation of member representatives, announcements should be made at least three months in advance to facilitate adequate planning and coordination.

2026-04-15 15:40:24 UTC

The sharing of best practices across member institutions will play a vital role in strengthening service learning not only at the project level but also in administration, assessment, student engagement, and community partnerships. Such collaborative exchange will help build more effective models and contribute to the long-term sustainability of service learning initiatives.
