19th Annual Community Engaged Learning Conference


The 19th Annual Community Engaged Learning Conference was held on Saturday, January 31st, 2026. This year’s theme, “The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Community Health” touched on questions including: can AI invoke emotions and images that empower efforts to improve community health, how does AI challenge our notions of creativity, beauty, and appreciation of art, and how is the creative process part of health, and how does AI impact this process?
Event highlights include:
- A keynote address by Michael Mackert, Ph.D., Director of the University of Texas at Austin Center for Health Communication
- All for All: Transforming Community Health Together, a panel discussion with subject experts
- Networking opportunities with community partners
In addition the library is hosting the art and poster presentations submitted by UT Health students. Stop by the library to view them in the library lobby, through the end of the month.
