Participatory Research
The Participatory Research programs of the Human Impacts Institute connect individual researchers, policy makers, academic institutions and college students with environmental partners in our global community. We facilitate the pro bono provision of environmental research services to in-need community groups and organizations.
Research partners include Columbia University (NYC), the New School (NYC), and Webster University (Netherlands). Environmental partners include those in the U.S., Brazil, Haiti, South Africa, Netherlands, Germany, France, Philippines, India, Kenya, Colombia, Panama, Mexico, and beyond.
