Charrettes have been used to solve planning and design problems in the built environment for decades, but this webinar will explore their use in applied research. Learn what a charrette is and hear about two case studies that provide examples of charrettes in non-planning and design contexts. Webinar participants will come away with an awareness of the charrette process and an understanding of how charrettes might be useful as a community-engaged, participatory approach to their research that can spark new ideas to approach their research.
