APLU's Modernizing Scholarship for the Public Good Action Framework (2023) offers guidance to public research universities on ways that they can support scholars to advance public impact research, Cooperative Extension, civic science, community-engaged research, and other forms of public engagement, with particular attention to the ways that diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice are integral to this work. The Modernizing Scholarship for the Public Good initiative was led by Elyse Aurbach, the APLU Civic Science Fellow, and supported by the Rita Allen Foundation, the Kavli Foundation, the Burroughs Wellcome Fund, APLU's FANR, and the University of Michigan.
