Building a Digital Repository to Strengthen the Structure for Community-Engaged Research on People and the Environment in New Haven

2022 YPS Grant Project

The benefits of Yale’s research on people and the environment in New Haven are not equally shared between the Yale community and the New Haven community. This project will create a repository of Yale faculty and student research on people and the environment in New Haven communities for the last 10 years. It will measure research impact and develop an accessible platform for New Haven residents as well as faculty and students to build on existing research and avoid duplicating efforts.  This project is an important first step to strengthen the structures for Yale faculty and students to carry out the principles of community-engaged research to support more equitable, impactful, and visible Yale/New Haven research partnerships, and allow faculty and students to build on existing research and avoid duplicating efforts.
