The New York Metro Agenda is our program specifically serving our home city and region through nonpartisan research, cutting-edge public engagement, and local events.
New York is our home base. It is also a hotbed of democratic innovation, and we are supporting this civic energy through actionable research, cutting-edge democratic practices, and thought-provoking events. Recent local projects have supported better health care services for low-income families; better small businesses/community relations; and collaboration between residents and scientists on environmental resilience in Jamaica Bay.
Bringing residents, scientists and local government together to empower community-led action in response to climate change.
Working with community-based development organizations to provide technical assistance and strategic guidance.
