The Community Innovators Lab

CoLab is a center for community-engaged research and practice within MIT's Department of Urban Studies and Planning. We work with low-income/low-wealth communities in putting their assets to work to help strengthen civic life and use the market as an arena for achieving social justice. Our video collection includes profiles of community leaders, community organizing tactics, and visions for better communities.
