About the Project

This research projects explores the impact of civic ecology education programs in the Bronx on sense of place in high-school students.

Conducted in 2009-2011, this research project is a joint effort of Cornell University and several community-based organizations in the Bronx. These organizations involve students in learning about the environment through environmental stewardship.

The project will help communities to enhance environmental restoration and stewardship in the Bronx River watershed and reconnect urban youth and other residents with the environment. Learn more.
