MIIS and CSUMB are partnering on a contract with the City Council of Monterey. The contract calls for CSUMB to conduct a hard asset mapping of the city, and MIIS to undertake a social asset mapping. Together, the two products will serve to inform the city’s next strategic plan. In this course, students will learn the discipline of social asset mapping, and undertake primary research with Monterey community members, organizations, and leaders. Students will produce a report and be required to present results in front of City Council members.
