JE-L Reports

For the Just Environments Lab, “reporting back” is not a final step in our research process. We frequently follow a community peer review process, whereby reporting back constitutes a midpoint in our research processes. Reporting back begins at the start of our research relationships, as we envision the purpose of the research for our partners. It also extends beyond the report in our continued efforts to see recommendations and next steps through.

As such, JE-L frequently writes and publishes reports for community partners, government partners, and grant sponsors. We strive to make as many of these resources available to the wider public as possible.
