The Cowen Institute collaborates and partners with a wide variety of governmental, non-profit, and for-profit agencies and organizations to address its key initiatives and programs.
The institute’s staff understands the importance of engaging in regular dialogue with non-profit organizations that are currently supporting public schools. We donated office space and are currently co-located with a number of like-minded organizations, including New Schools for New Orleans, New Leaders for New Schools, and The New Teacher Project.
A key component of our model of collaboration and building partnerships is the local community that it seeks to serve. The Cowen Institute realizes the importance of such a network of community organizations as a source of on-the-ground information and perspectives to shape our plans; an accountability mechanism for public education in New Orleans; and a powerful pressure group to drive system-wide changes.
The Cowen Institute is a resource for state and federal legislators and provides best practice-based thought leadership on policies that affect the public schools of New Orleans.
The Cowen Institute also partners with schools, institutes, departments, and centers within Tulane University and other local higher education institutions.
