Who We Are
The Hub is a dynamic group that identifies community-centered research needs and collectively develops best practices for diverse university-community partnerships.
Because participants in the Hub are grounded in principles of justice, diversity, equity and inclusion, we are able to foster new insights into how climate change is impacting communities whose narratives are often excluded or overlooked.

Facilitating Connections
The Hub recognizes and appreciates the extensive, existing environmental and climate justice work happening on campus at the Center for Regional Change, Institute for Transportation Studies, and elsewhere.
We are a productive partner committed to elevating, expanding, and bringing resources to existing efforts; facilitating connections with new partners across campus and beyond who are working to address environmental and climate injustice and equity; and centering Indigenous environmental justice issues and partnerships.
