Collaborative Spaces

COVID-19:  Boston University & the Hariri Institute are committed to promoting a safe campus environment. The Hariri Institute’s spaces will be adhering to the current Boston University safety protocols. We ask those who reserve the Hariri Institute spaces to use provided cleaning products and wipes to clean the space prior to their meeting, and remove all trash after the meeting. 

The Hariri Institute’s collaborative spaces encourage innovative thinking by allowing people of various academic backgrounds to gather and collectively contribute to a project or idea. This type of space is invaluable to cultivating interdisciplinary research as it provides a community space for creative approaches for solutions to modern problems.

Below are detailed instructions on how BU Faculty & students can reserve Institute spaces through 25Live, manuals on how to use the equipment in the spaces and a list of space features.

How to reserve a Hariri Institute space

All Hariri Institute meeting and event spaces must be requested through 25Live. Each reservation request is reviewed within two business days and an email notification will be sent from 25Live to acknowledge if the reservation has been confirmed or denied.

For urgent room requests within two business days, we ask you to submit the request in 25Live and also request the space by emailing Stephen Brown, the Hariri Institute’s Director of Finance and Administration, at stbrown@bu.edu.
