In this work, we seek to:

• inquire through systematic studies to understand how research can be a transformative tool
• facilitate learning through workshops, professional learning, and public "design sprints" to support transformative engagement in research
  
• collaborate with funders and other research organizations to re-imagine and support new approaches to designing and supporting research
  
• support powerful networks for the collective learning of those engaged in collaborative, transformative educational research
  
• advance resources through design, development, and testing of tools for engaging in, and using, educational research
  
• share insights, knowledge, and tools with broader communities
