Professor Hansford will meet with Pitt faculty to discuss how we can lift up the work of the Permanent Forum and integrate it into the academy (curriculum, programming development). and the community (outreach and engagement). We hope to activate the network of scholars engaged last month by VP John Wallace as well as any interested faculty.

In addition, we will discuss with Hansford a Pittsburgh-focused report using the SDG framework as a lens to analyze racial disparities and injustices in Pittsburgh and southwestern PA. We’ll be seeking data and partners for this project, in support of Hansford’s visit to Geneva in December.
