Strategic Partnerships

For us, research is about the impact, support and engagement of community. Our strategic partnerships enable us to realize this goal through large-scale projects like the creation of our new Research Yard with CUNY City Tech at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and DesignWorks High School, a new public school for design and social justice with Bank Street College of Education. Our newest strategic partnership is as a founding core partner in the New York Climate Exchange on Governors Island.
