MIT Center for Civic Media

Cambridge, MA

    • About Us

    The MIT Center for Civic Media creates and deploys technical and social tools that fill the information needs of communities.

    We are inventors of new technologies that support and foster civic media and political action; we are a hub for the study of these technologies; and we coordinate community-based test beds in both the United States and internationally.

    Bridging two established programs at MIT—one known for inventing alternate technical futures, the other for identifying the cultural and social potential of media change—the Center for Civic Media is a joint effort between the MIT Media Lab and the MIT Comparative Media Studies Program. It is made possible by funding from the Knight Foundation.
