Engagement Zone Coordinators

Engagement Zone Coordinators are key collaborative and strategic connectors between UNL and Nebraska communities. They work within Nebraska Extension, and they are committed to engaging with community partners, organizations, and individuals, looking for ways to connect them with the resources, research, and innovation of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. You can learn how to engage with community partners through Nebraska Extension with our Engagement Tips.
