The Pulte Institute for Global Development, part of Notre Dame’s Keough School of Global Affairs, has received a $1.4 million grant cooperative agreement from the United States Agency for International Development’s (USAID) Office of Food for Peace to conduct a long-term evaluation of its principal food security programs in Bangladesh.
The project is an effort to combat the rise of coordinated social media campaigns to incite violence, sow discord and threaten the integrity of democratic elections.
In accordance with new University procedures, meant to safeguard the health and well-being of members of our community, the Pulte Institute is making alternative arrangements to continue our central work of education and research. The Pulte Institute will remain open virtually to ensure the continuity of our services in the best ways possible.
Due to the University of Notre Dame's decision to suspend all in-person classes through April 13, the Pulte Institute has made the difficult decision to cancel all public-facing events scheduled from now through April 13. This includes the Gary Gereffi Public Talk 'Where in the World Has Development Gone' originally scheduled for April 1.
The Pulte Institute for Global Development will welcome Gary Gereffi, Emeritus Professor of Sociology and Director of the Global Value Chains Center at Duke University, to campus for a public talk on Wednesday, April 1, 12:30 - 1:30 pm in 1030 Jenkins Nanovic Halls. The event will be hosted by Scott Appleby, the Marilyn Keough Dean of the Keough School of Global Affairs.
