ART & Eco Research Collab provide consultation and assistance in education program design, in-field research, stragetic planning, program development and intercultural communication training domestically and internationally. In the United States, we work with a myriad of local “green” organizations in Seattle, Washington in developing and implementing social justice oriented and culturally-centric educational materials and trainings that focus on recycling, waste management, ecological restoration, aquaponics and rain gardening. Materials and trainings are disseminated and facilitated, respectively, to multicultural communities and people of color that lack access to real-world data and information on a plethora of social and environmental problems. These products and services serve to bridge the communication gap between mainstream organizations and local community members and facilitate the practice of transparent collaborative learning and problem solving, thereby increasing intercultural competencies.
