Western Center for Metropolitan Extension & Research

Engage • Advance • Innovate

The Western Center for Metropolitan Extension and Research works to increase the internal capacity of Western Extension programs to address metropolitan issues and to elevate the stature and value of Cooperative Extension to external metropolitan audiences.

We also work with urban municipalities, NGO’s, and private businesses – connecting our partners with university professionals working across the Western United States whose expertise lies in project management, facilitation, leadership, and academia.
