Community-University Partnerships: Leveraging Big Data for Racial Justice and Equity

• In Event: Community-University Partnerships: Leveraging Big Data for Racial Justice and Equity

Abstract

There are many ways for not-for-profit and policymaking organizations to collaborate with universities to pursue racial justice and equity. This presentation will provide multiple examples of how the Institute for Racial Justice is building a strong team of faculty, student, and community scholars who leverage big data in collaboration with different community leaders and organizations. Participants will walk away with an understanding of the steps taken to develop this partnership model and associated outcomes.
