Macaulay Community Resiliency Lab
Calling all Macaulay Honors College students! We need you to join a collaborative innovation lab to inform and co-create a vision for how the campus community can enable resiliency to thrive. Join us for any or all the sessions and make sure your voice is heard.
The Opportunity
Understand Phase (Spring 2024): Two representatives from each of our eight partner campuses will be invited into a leadership cohort of 16 students. With mentoring and support from Design for America, this cohort will receive specialized training in multi-stakeholder problem-solving and will lead this innovative initiative to build a shared understanding of the needs and hopes of the Macaulay student community.
This commitment takes place approximately March 8 – May 10 and requires 2-3 hours/week.
Members of the leadership cohort will receive a stipend of $600 for their service to Macaulay.
- Feb: Attend Macaulay-wide workshops with DFA to learn more about the Community Resiliency Lab. All are welcome!
- Late Feb: Apply to join the cohort.
- Early March: Cohort members selected, and the Understand Phase begins.
- March-April: Cohort members conduct the project (which everyone can still participate in).
- May: Attend the closing Macaulay-wide Innovation Celebration to and prepare for the Create Phase (Fall 2024)!
