It depends. As part of Seize the Moment, we're interested in outcomes that address intersecting health, social, and environmental issues through a transdisciplinary approach based in the arts and humanities. For these mini-grants, we're looking for outcomes with a wide public impact that engage the larger community. Additionally, we really like it when outcomes produce documents, media, or other deliverables and assets that extend the value of the project beyond the course. In the past, some of our favorite outcomes have been podcasts, videos, public events, and art performances.
