WHAT IS A FACULTY WORKING GROUP?:
A Faculty Working Group is composed of about 10 or so experts, selected from a range of disciplines, geographic regions, and/or sectors, who come together to focus and collaborate intensively for about a week at a time, usually for several times a year. Each participant brings his/her data, methods, and experiences for analysis. The goal of a working group is to synthesize existing data or create new knowledge and catalyze innovative solutions.
