Global Justice and Equity Conference: Advancing Community-Engaged Research

This year’s Global Justice and Equity (GJE) Conference, organized by the inaugural cohort of GJE Fellows, focused on advancing our understanding and practice of community-engaged research. Featuring Duke-based researchers and local practitioners, conference sessions included an exploration of multidisciplinary understandings of equity and justice, best practices for community-engaged research, and a case study of university-community partnerships to address food insecurity among the LatinX/Hispanic community in Durham.
