Inaugural Institute
In August 2014, CCREC launched the first Collaborative Research Training Institute at the UC Santa Cruz campus. The institute introduced graduate students and early career scholars to the theories, methods, ethics, and democratic aspects of collaborative research. Sessions were facilitated by CCREC Fellows.
The Collaborative Research Training Institute, now the Community Engaged Research Institute (CERI), is held each summer in partnership with various centers on the UC Santa Cruz campus.
