The Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future, established in 2000, conducts future-oriented, interdisciplinary, and policy-relevant research on globally important issues that will contribute to long-term improvements in the human condition. The Center is especially interested in rigorous analysis relating to longer-range human development. We envision a future where excellent scholarship improves the long-term human condition. With your gift today, you will help us realize this vision and positively impact interdisciplinary, long-term, global research and the students who will lead it.
In addition to a rigorous program of seminars, conferences, workshops, and other events each year, the Pardee Center is host to a number of signature programs. Our faculty seed grants catalyze research collaborations that would otherwise be difficult to achieve within traditional academic boundaries. Our highly-competitive Graduate Summer Fellows program offers graduate students an opportunity for intensive interdisciplinary research and writing in a collegial atmosphere that fosters peer support and intellectual growth. Our monthly Global Health Politics Workshop (GHPW) series brings together practitioners and leading social scientists from the disciplines of anthropology, political science, and sociology to advance understanding of health phenomena in a globally interconnected world.
Your gift supports student and faculty research, helps us to continue the important and exciting work we are doing, and enables us to launch new initiatives in response to global developments. Thank you!
