Webinar: Environmental Justice - Research and Community Partnerships
A webinar on Environmental Justice that examines how researchers and environmental justice organizations can collaborate to advance knowledge and work toward equitable solutions to environmental problems.
Hosted by Resources for the Future (RFF) and the Urban Institute. This is the fifth webinar in a six-part webinar series on environmental justice. Effective partnerships between researchers and community organizations can advance understanding of the nature of environmental problems and underlying vulnerabilities in disadvantaged communities, as well as help to identify policy and program solutions. These partnerships leverage complementary knowledge bases and skill sets: researchers often bring data and analytical tools to carefully measure and document impacts; community organizations elevate the lived experiences and concerns of residents and expand the research findings.
