Collaborations
As one of many indicator initiatives nationally, Arizona Indicators seeks to actively engage colleagues in the field who are working with complementary datasets. Recently, Morrison Institute for Public Policy, Arizona Indicators’ parent institution, strengthened its relationship with Brookings Institution.
Morrison Institute for Public Policy and Brookings Institution are now partners in Brookings Mountain West, a collaboration of Brookings Institution and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Brookings Mountain West was established in 2009, building upon the work of Brookings’ Metropolitan Policy Program. With a focus on the Intermountain West states – Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Idaho, Utah, and New Mexico – Brookings Mountain West conducts research on economic growth, demographic change, infrastructure improvement, environmental impact, alternative energy, and real estate investment.
