MTEP was well-represented at the June 2025 Transforming Institutions Conference in St. Louis, Missouri, hosted by the Accelerating Systemic Change Network. MTEP 2.0 PIs W. Gary Martin, Marilyn Strutchens, Alyson Lischka, Dana Franz, and Wendy Smith all attended the conference, and collectively presented four posters (at four different poster sessions), led one session, and one workshop. The conference featured keynotes, concurrent sessions, workshops, and poster sessions, representing many different types of systemic change efforts. The theme of this year’s conference was "Rowing in the Same Direction," and the annotated program with abstracts and presentations is now available online.

In order to bring the conference experience to you, the people involved in creating posters have created short videos to narrate the posters that feature MTEP findings (scroll down to see the Research Posters section).
