Building Trust and Fostering Sustainable Collaboration Across Higher Education Institutions: Examples from Michigan and Texas

Webinar - Building Trust and Fostering Sustainable Collaboration Across Higher Education Institutions: Examples from Michigan and Texas

July 21, 2021 - Rich Pirog<$authorEmail>, Kolia Souza<ksouza@msu.edu>, Jacqueline White, Jayna Dave, Carolyn Williams, Emily Proctor, and Steve Yanni

The Center for Regional Food Systems – as part of its continuing work at the intersection of food systems and racial equity and pluralism - is interested in lifting examples of collaborations across land-grant institutions and between land-grants and public/private higher education institutions that are pluralistic in nature and built on trust and shared values.

This webinar features examples from Michigan and Texas. The Texas example is a collaboration between Prairie View A&M University's Cooperative Extension Program (an 1890 land-grant institution) and Baylor College of Medicine (a private institution). The Michigan example is a collaboration across Michigan State University Extension and three 1994 land-grant Tribal Colleges - Bay Mills, Saginaw Chippewa, and Keweenaw Bay.
