UPenn Graduate School of Education's Hub for Equity, Anti-oppression, Research and Development (HEARD), Middle East Center, and South Asia Center
Announced by the University of Pittsburgh:
The UPenn Graduate School of Education's Hub for Equity, Anti-oppression, Research and Development (HEARD) invites you to join our community for an interactive panel to broaden our understanding of the ongoing impact of 9/11. Participants will learn more about US engagements in wars over the last two decades; the consequences and costs of these wars; and how and why we need to teach about war. Speakers will share research, pedagogical tools and curriculum resources that help us move beyond teaching about 9/11 to teaching beyond it.
