FELLOWS
Resident Fellows

Resident fellows are based at the Institute for periods of three months in the fall, spring and summer during which time they pursue research and present public projects on critical issues concerning the design and use of public space today. Each year, the Institute selects fellows through a competitive open application process, and invites a distinguished practitioner or scholar to join the fellowship as a Senior Fellow. Fellows' projects are awarded in any of five broad project areas – Land Use and Development, Forms and Materials, Information and Communication, Systems and Ecology, and Culture and Politics.

The 2007-2008 resident fellows are generating exhibitions and installations, launching media campaigns, and organizing forums and symposia on a range of topics – from air quality in New York City to informal settlements in Nairobi to the global digital divide.
