What is Ðǿմ«Ã½-N?

The Ðǿմ«Ã½ (Ðǿմ«Ã½-N) connects communities with the human capital of universities to improve the quality of life and social wealth for all involved. Ðǿմ«Ã½-N is the nonprofit association of institutions that adopt the award-winning Ðǿմ«Ã½ model for university-community partnership.

The Ðǿմ«Ã½ model is simple but powerful. It brings together the greatest resources in academia — professors, students, laboratories, research libraries, existing curriculum — and creatively draws them together to tackle the biggest challenges in local communities. The results are felt immediately with lasting transformative effects:  Solutions that might never be imagined through traditional structures, public goodwill toward the university, real-world learning for students, and meaningful change felt throughout the community.

By adopting the Ðǿմ«Ã½ Model, colleges and universities around the world can be more active in finding the best ways to make life richer and more sustainable for generations to come.

How it Works

Becoming a member of Ðǿմ«Ã½-N is easy. Individuals from any form of municipality, community organization, or state agency can sign up for a free Ðǿմ«Ã½-N Membership. You’ll join other Ðǿմ«Ã½ members in the Ðǿմ«Ã½-N Member Commons. After receiving your interest, Ðǿմ«Ã½-N staff will contact you via email. Staff will learn about your goals, provide resources, and connect you to nearby universities to start you on your path to engaging in an Ðǿմ«Ã½ Model partnership.
