C2C Research Seminars
The C2C Research Seminar Series offers a space for research peers to connect, exchange ideas, and provide meaningful feedback. The weekly hybrid seminars, rotating between the Boston, Oakland, and Portland campuses, showcase the diverse work of C2C funded scholars that bridge research with community practice and partnerships. Through open dialogue, participants engage with a wide array of topics that reflect pressing societal challenges and opportunities for impact. Sessions are recorded and shared at the scholar’s discretion.
