Connecting CUNY: Launching a New Tool for Cross-Campus Civic Collaboration

New York City is home to one of the largest public university systems in the world.

Across CUNY’s 25 campuses, thousands of students, faculty, and community partners are working every day on research, civic engagement, and problem-solving that shapes the future of our city.

Yet too often, the people working on similar challenges across boroughs never find each other.

On April 29, join the as we unveil a new tool designed to help surface shared research interests and spark collaboration across campuses and communities.

Developed by CUNY student fellows in partnership with , this platform aims to make it easier to:

• Discover shared research and civic interests across CUNY
• Connect faculty, students, and community partners
• Strengthen cross-campus and cross-borough collaboration
• Turn civic insights into meaningful action for NYC

This gathering will bring together students, faculty, civic leaders, and community partners to preview the tool, share ideas, and explore how stronger collaboration across CUNY can support a stronger New York City.

Be among the first to see the platform live and help shape what comes next.
