The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) awarded a $200,000 Project Grant under the Promotion of the Humanities Challenge Grants program (CFDA 45.130) to Colorado State University (CSU) to support the renovation of space for the university's new Center for Engaged Humanities. The Center will engage members of the public and community organizations as critical collaborators in humanities scholarship and programming designed to strengthen local, state, and regional democratic institutions and directly serve the needs of Colorado residents. Operating as a humanistic think tank and an engagement laboratory, the Center will match humanities expertise to community needs, train students and faculty in engaged scholarship best practices, and model the humanities' capacity to unite physical, cultural, and human architectures in democratic decision-making processes. The award will fund renovations to create a highly visible, accessible campus portal for the Center's public-facing programming and engagement activities.
