Faculty Research for Impact

Faculty Research for Impact (FR4I) is a design workshop series created during the 2019-20 academic year. Each workshop is themed around one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In these sessions, Business+Impact hosts faculty who share their SDG-related research, and participants collaborate to develop ideas that directly impact those goals.

For the first session, Ross faculty members Bill Lovejoy, Ted London and Aneel Karnani shared their research around Goal 1: Poverty Alleviation.

In the second installment of the series, Jun Li, A. Yeşim Orhun [above], and Chris Rider discussed Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities.

During the month of January, Ravi Anupindi, Sarah Miller, and John Siberholz addressed Goal 3: Good Health & Well-Being.

Lastly, in February, we tackled Goal 13: Climate Action with Ross faculty members Ekaterina Astashkina, Andrew Hoffman, and Dana Muir.
