The Center for Urban Research, Teaching & Outreach positions itself as an intellectual axis and key convener of programs that address issues central to affirming human rights and human dignity.
Building from our networks with local community experts and stakeholders, CURTO projects and initiatives share a number of core features that are rooted in our mission and guiding values. While each project takes on it's own life and identity in these university-community collaborations, CURTO projects and initiatives are aligned in that they are all deeply interdisciplinary, they center stakeholders in all phases of project development, undergraduate and graduate students play an active leadership role in project management, and they are at the intersection of our three pillars - research, teaching, and outreach.
This Spring 2022 semester, CURTO will continue to co-sponsor Soup with Substance, hosted by Campus Ministry. Soup with Substance is a noontime presentation, on an issue related to social justice over a simple meal of soup and bread. Learn more and sign up for sessions here.
