PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT
Bringing the field to the academy and the academy to the field
Penn is widely recognized as an innovator in forging meaningful university community connections. The Institute seeks to build on this reputation by engaging the University and the public around issues of urban challenges and opportunities in order to inform public discourse and influence urban policy.
Penn IUR's public engagement efforts center around the following four programs: Expert Events, Annual Leadership Forum, National Impact Conferences, and Public Interest Lecture Series.
