Assistance, or Education. Details will vary depending on the interests and needs of our community partners. Co-production is an interdisciplinary method that seeks to incorporate collaborative approaches to projects between community groups and institutions
and will be applied throughout this fellowship. Fellows will gain experience in co-producing outputs and deliverables with a community-based organization and the NCRC.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
