SCoRE aims to support your partnerships with resources and templates that help you on your journey. You’ll see that our emphasis is on starting the partnership off right, through intentional conversations and the establishing of shared goals. Although you will grow relationships reflective of your own style, expertise, and aims, there are best practices that undergird most successful collaborations. For research teams, we highly suggest you review SCoRE’s Community-Engaged Research Principles.  For all partnership endeavors, SCoRE is happy to support your journey. If you have questions about these materials or about creating partnerships for your research and teaching, please feel free to contact SCoRE’s Associate Director Ruthie Yow (ruth.yow@gatech.edu). Please note that SCoRE focuses primarily on research-related partnerships and educational partnerships with a sustainability theme, while the Office of Community Based Learning (Director: Sarah Brackmann at sarah.brackmann@gatech.edu) is the primary point of contact for partners seeking students teams and/or course-based partnerships across all disciplines/topics.
