Section 2: Young in the Community

section 2

young in the community

Our Young Initiative community connections spanned student groups, community organizations, city officials, and local elementary school students. We recognize that our work on the Global Political Economy is as relevant to local communities as it is to communities outside of Los Angeles. The future of GPE, local action, and sustainable development begins with connections across academic institutions and community groups that recognize that global norms only matter if they have local relevance. In that context, this section of our report details the partnerships we made, the projects we supported, and the networks we are growing.
