Project Description
Our projects look closely at social capital - the bonding, bridging, and linking social ties that connect us horizontally and vertically - and social infrastructure - the places and spaces that build these ties, such as libraries, parks, and cafes. We seek to understand their distribution, impact on social capital, and influence on resilience outcomes during shocks and disasters.
