Runway to Broader Impacts

Northeastern faculty are invited to participate in a peer learning community focused on developing and sustaining research partnerships with non-academic partners for impactful and socially responsible research. Participation is open to faculty in all colleges and at any stage in their careers. Our goal is to share information about resources at Northeastern that can help you navigate extramural partnerships and to provide a forum for interdisciplinary knowledge sharing.

Participating scholar-practitioners will:

• Engage with Principles of Anti-Oppressive Community Engagement and apply those principles to our own disciplines and projects;
• Learn about domains of community engaged research;
• Hear perspectives from colleagues across the university, learn from others’ experiences;
• Develop personal research impact statements, goals and approaches for community engaged research;
• Share your own experiences and best practices for community-engaged research.

Program Facilitators:

• Becca Berkey, PhD, Director of Community Engaged Teaching and Research
• Kimberly Lucas, PhD, Professor of the Practice in Public Policy and Economic Justice, School of Public Policy and Urban Affairs
• Liz Allen, PhD, Associate Director of Research Development, CAMD
