TCRC works to expand and support community research, with an emphasis on participatory approaches through partnerships between locally-based community organizations and Tufts faculty, students, and staff.
On May 3, 2023, Tisch College hosted Tufts students and community partners to share research from all disciplines, fields, and communities to expand our thinking about the role of identity, innovation, and impact.
TCRC has selected three new Seed Research Projects exploring maternal and infant health, geospatial data on communities' wellbeing, and understanding engagement in Boston's environmental justice communities.
Tisch College seeks to reach across the entire University, embedding civic learning experiences across all Schools and programs at Tufts. And in that effort, Leanne Loo, A22, is providing a road map for student learning and community impact.
