Cultivating Connections

Hiatt Community of Inquiry

The Hiatt Center for Urban Education is growing a community of inquiry among youth, school- and neighborhood-based educators, and university academics and students dedicated to creating educational spaces for youth to engage the world, inquire into possibilities, and become creators of new realities.  By cultivating a research community that brings together multiple participants, perspectives, and methods, our focus is on building the deep human relationships and generating the practices, knowledge, and innovations needed to support more equitable and meaningful education.
