Help Create a Smarter Georgia Through Community Research Projects.
The Partnership for Inclusive Innovation supports community research across the State of Georgia by engaging a network of researchers, community leaders, and key stakeholders to advance local initiatives for innovation. Many of the projects are supported through Community Research, a program that provides community research assistance to empower municipalities to utilize technology and data to pursue a “smart” future. The Partnership also accepts proposals for applied community research funding to foster impact in a variety of regions and disciplines.
Community Research Grants
Communities work together for lasting transformation
The Partnership activates collaborations between researchers and municipalities to explore innovative uses of technology and data in pursuit of prosperity for all. Communities selected to participate in the Community Research program have access to an array of resources, including a funded research team, networking opportunities, and other unique partnerships.
