Home | Urban Transformation (original) (raw)

The Center for Urban Transformation (CUT) in Chicago was founded to provide and apply solutions to urban problems that are informed by the principles of environmental and economic justice; ecosystem health, community health, food justice and human rights.

While much of the work of the CUT is centered in the food system where we work with urban farmers, community gardens and backyard gardeners to foster education and cultural change designed to improve the health profile of the communities we work in.

While CUT works in urban food systems we are committed to working with suburban, rural producers and consumers in Illinois and throughout the Midwest/Great Lakes region while also working at the national and transnational levels.

However, the CUT will engage in programs and projects that are intersectional and interdisciplinary given our commitment to the principles mentioned above.

Ultimately, the CUT is founded on and devoted to the benefit of all of humanity and ALL beings!

Please feel free to reach out to the CUT to discuss any opportunities for collaboration based upon common organizational principles...
