Center for Collaborative Research for an Equitable California (CCREC)

Mission

The Center for Collaborative Research for an Equitable California (CCREC) supports the formation of the field of engaged scholarship and puts ethics at the forefront of this interdisciplinary approach to research.

CCREC supports research that is both in collaboration with and accountable to structurally aggrieved communities by leveraging research to build a more just, equitable and democratic society.

CCREC partnerships and consultancies are tailored to specific projects at the local, regional, state, national, and international levels.

The annual summer Community Engaged Research Institute (CERI) provides opportunities for community- and university-based research partners to develop and strengthen ethical, justice-oriented research practices that link together knowledge production and mobilization.
