Mapping the Landscape of Community Engagement & AI
Jump to
April 7 @ 8:30 am – 2:00 pm
ResearchCon is an annual event supported by the Division of Research and Engagement and the Institute for Community and Economic Engagement. Each year, we bring together a panel of experts from the campus, our community, and beyond, to engage in conversation about a topic of pressing interest to our communities and the researchers they support. This year’s topic, on community engagement and artificial intelligence in our county and across the state, will feature the expertise of leaders from city and county governments, educators, nonprofit leaders, and education.
