Projects

With so much incredible work occurring at our centers, our focus at Tech & Society is on building connective tissue between centers and departments, identifying points of intersection, and then creating opportunities and incentives for novel collaboration at those points of intersection.

Whether those opportunities are for research, publications, teaching, convening, or advocacy, we intentionally put our time into programs that are designed specifically to bring together multiple centers. Our aim is for quality over quantity, and ultimately success for us means that the work is implemented and taking root throughout the Tech & Society ecosystem—not concentrated in a single place.
