Community-Engaged Research: Data Warriors

The Syracuse Data Warriors are a youth-centered community-engaged research group that brings together high school students and teachers and university students and researchers. We seek truth about environmental justice through research, education, and advocacy focused on math and mapping.

Educate yourself. Educate others. Make change.
