Study Abroad
Broaden your understanding of the roles of governance, management, and policy through participation in a two-week day study abroad course in Sierra Leone. We will observe agricultural and forestry businesses and projects, speak with policy makers and development leaders, and learn from our local colleagues.
Ebola response
Rapid real-time advice and guidelines provided by Professor Melissa Leach and fellow anthropologists during the Ebola crisis increased the effectiveness of medical and humanitarian responses, saving lives and reducing the spread of the disease.
