Here are upcoming presentations by GoHelp lab students:

Rodrigo Curty will be presenting at Symposium of Research in International Relations, organized by the State University of Rio de Janeiro and he will be presenting on:China in Latin America and the Caribbean: Overcoming dependency or promoting new forms of dominance.

In spite of all the challenges the Covid-19 pandemic triggered over the last several months, two of the welcome gifts it also afforded me has been 1) time to reflect and 2) the ability to continue with my studies in an atypical way. My experience as a graduate student in the School of Planning had already unceasingly tested my motivation and self-direction but working as a Research Assistant (RA) and powering through electives over the Spring term helped me recognize how important it is to foster supportive relationships and prioritize your own wellbeing during uncertain times.

Susan Elliott presents (virtually) the results of research on urban water pollution in Dhaka at Stockholm World Water Week on August 27th, 2020.
