VIRTUAL: The Public Sector & Resource Allocation (afternoon session)

In what ways do the effects of historically discriminatory government policies linger today, and what scope exists to reduce their remaining harms?

Recent research provides insight into these questions, as well as into the implications of changing the way that race itself is conceptualized in empirical discrimination research.

2021 Global Environmental Justice Conference

The 2021 Global Environmental Justice Conference at the Yale School of the Environment will focus on a just green recovery.
