Integration and Belonging Hub

This collection contains documents relating to the Integration and Belonging Hub's ongoing activities and initiatives in addition to materials relating to internal conceptual and planning efforts.

The Integration and Belonging Hub (IBH) is an initiative formed within Clark University’s Sustainability and Social Justice department. Its mission is to foster migrant and refugee-inclusive communities locally, nationally, and globally through student learning, community engagement, and research and policy analysis. The IBH views our dynamic societies and the mobile people among them (refugees, asylum seekers, migrants and others) as “integrating together“ and seeks innovative approaches for creating shared worlds. The IBH aims to cultivate a new generation of practitioners and scholars and to develop frameworks to support multi-directional processes of social cohesion.

The IBH promotes collaboration among departments, academics, practitioners, and community partners. It involves students in discovery and creating change, and supports innovative research to understand multi-directional processes of migration and social cohesion.
