The OU Institute for Quality Communities (IQC) is excited to announce the new Community Engagement Fellowship, through a partnership with the Association of Central Oklahoma Governments. IQC is seeking three Community Engagement Fellows, who will form a community of practice as they each lead a project that delivers planning, design, and/or placemaking services to a central Oklahoma community during the 2021-22 year. Fellows will be supported by IQC staff and with financial support. Applications from GCA faculty and affiliate faculty will be accepted through April 26.
