Advancing Civic Research Agendas

Led by: Dan O'Brien

BARI is committed to supporting the communities of greater Boston to leverage data and research to improve life in the region, especially where it can advance social, economic, and environmental justice. To this end, with the support of the Herman and Frieda L. Miller Foundation, we have developed an array of Community Partnership Programming that meets community organizations, public agencies, and others at their current level of comfort with data and research. A major goal of this work is to foster civic research agendas—that is, a set of priorities identified by one or more stakeholder institutions and the ways that they might leverage data or research to advance them. This work largely consists of sessions that are co-designed and co-hosted with community partners to develop and advance civic research agendas both within and across organizations.
