Tina Nabatchi is an Assistant Professor of Public Administration and a Faculty Research Associate at the Program for the Advancement of Research on Conflict and Collaboration (PARCC). Her research interests include public management, public policy, and law, particularly in relation to citizen engagement, collaborative governance, and conflict resolution.

Before joining the Maxwell School, Dr. Nabatchi was the Research Coordinator for the Indiana
Conflict Resolution Institute at Indiana University-Bloomington, where she was responsible for the design, implementation, analysis, and publication of various research projects. In this capacity, she provided consultations about, and evaluations of, alternative dispute resolution (ADR) in several U.S. federal agencies, including the Department of Justice, the Postal Service, the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Agriculture, and the U.S. Institute for Environmental Conflict Resolution.

Dr. Nabatchi is currently engaged in research about deliberative democracy and citizen engagement.  Specifically, she is interested in the roles that citizens can and do play in the work of government. To that end, she is developing theoretical and conceptual work about the relationships between participatory design choices and outcomes. She is also empirically evaluating the effects of participation on the civic skills and dispositions of citizens, and well as how participatory outcomes are integrated into public action and policy decisions.

Dr. Nabatchi is also Co-Director of CNYSpeaks, a joint project of the Maxwell School and the Post-Standard that seeks to engage the citizens of the Central New York region in discussions about the issues that matter to them most.

Dr. Nabatchi has published numerous journal articles and book chapters, and has presented her research at several academic and practitioner-based conferences. Click here for a list of Dr. Nabatchi's publications.
