Global Humanities Project Launched in Washington, D.C. (March 5-6, 2014)

The George Washington University hosted the first colloquium of the Global Humanities Project—bringing together the presidents of three universities, alongside humanities advocates from several countries, to discuss ways to enhance the visibility, prestige and impact of the arts and humanities in an increasingly globalized world. The colloquium signaled the start of Boğaziçi University’s collaboration with The George Washington University and Al Akhawayn University to produce a series of interconnected events drawing on the humanities in different national and cultural contexts.
