The Grounded Knowledge Project creates spaces and curates resources for public-facing, community-engaged research in religious studies.

THE GROUNDED KNOWLEDGE PROJECT

Community-based work raises distinctive questions about engaging with local communities, integrating grounded approaches, and developing mutually beneficial projects.

We convene scholars & practitioners to explore and develop this nascent space of work. 

Knowledge, Grounded. Because expertise comes from everywhere.

Webinar Series.

This four-part webinar series identifies pressing issues, highlights best practices, illuminates the contours of the work of community engaged public scholarship and helps to grow a network of practitioners.


Resource Collection.

This evolving multimedia collection includes a digital map of community-driven projects, a short documentary, and more.


Certificate Program.

Working with ReligionAndPublicLife.org, we are developing an online, asynchronous certificate that introduces scholars– graduate students and early career scholars as well as more seasoned scholars– to conceptual issues, approaches, tools, strategies, and models for community-driven research.


Working Group.

This small group of scholars and practitioners meets regularly to share expertise and collaborate on project activities, including the webinar series, resource collection, certificate program, and more.


OUR MISSION

This website is a living repository of knowledge to support religion scholars & practitioners developing & maintaining community-engaged public humanities projects.
