City Anchors Learning Network

Posted by on November 07, 2007

Following last May's meeting on Leveraging Anchor Institutions for Urban Success in San Jose and the white paper that followed, CEOs for Cities is set to launch the City Anchors Learning Network on November 30 to apply those findings on the ground in member cities.

Urban leaders from Boston, Detroit, Lansing and St. Louis will work together over an 18-month period to gain new insights and invent new ways for:

• Anchor institutions to enliven communities and make them more dynamic places that trigger people's imaginations, emotions and desire to learn.

   

 

• Anchor institutions to become "networked places"where various types of institutions are cooperating toward common ends.
