...working in Buffalo's living laboratory
Since 2009, this fellowship program has provided opportunities for ILR students to participate as a group in research, active learning and service in community-based economic development in Buffalo.
Undergoing dynamic reinvention, Buffalo is home to a rich array of creative organizations
tackling rust belt challenges. Students will learn about and contribute to vibrant local innovation by working with nonprofit organizations, government officials, businesses and labor advocates focused on revitalizing the metro Buffalo economy. Affordable group housing is available for students not from the area.
