Wednesday March 6, 2013  •  5:30pm-8:15pm
The Heller School - Zinner Forum
Brandeis University  •  415 South St  •  Waltham MA

Through keynotes, roundtable conversations and networking, the 2nd annual Brandeis Global Forum serves to connect practitioners and professionals-in-training from the fields of international development, international peace-building and international public health.

Partnership in Practice: This year's Forum focuses on the topic of cross-disciplinary partnerships and collaboration between practitioners of international development, conflict resolution and health.  We will explore methods for leveraging collective intelligence through management and communication across disciplines, geography and interests.

Collective Intelligence in Development: Through roundtable discussions, you will have the opportunity to directly connect with six sets of students interested in you and your organization.  These quality conversations  will allow for meaningful connections and knowledge sharing with both graduate and undergraduate students from Brandeis.  Students will visit your roundtable for 10-15 minutes, which will give you the opportunity to identify talent as well as speak openly about how your organization operates within this comprehensive global perspective of development.
