2024 GSDI Global Research Symposium
October 9 @ 8:30 am - 3:45 pm
In October, the School of Social Work’s Global Social Development Innovations (GSDI) research center will convene a symposium to share innovative, action-oriented approaches that allow young people around the world to thrive.
The 2024 GSDI Global Research Symposium is organized around the theme of Improving Inclusive Youth Development. The symposium will bring together some of the most thoughtful experts from across UNC-Chapel Hill and the globe to highlight how researchers and practitioners are improving the lives of vulnerable and marginalized youth.
You can join us virtually over the course of Tuesday, Oct. 8 (agenda here), and Wednesday, Oct. 9 (agenda here). Alternatively, I invite you to participate in person over three days at the Friday Conference Center just off of UNC’s campus. Our opening ceremonies start at 6 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 7 (agenda here). Meals are provided throughout the symposium.
