INTERDISCIPLINARY GROUP 
ON POVERTY & INEQUALITY

IGPI

 
 


The Interdisciplinary Group on Poverty and Inequality was established during the 2007-2008 academic year and first received funding from Rackham’s Interdisciplinary Workshop program in 2008-2009. The goal of the program is to provide a forum for graduate and professional students from all disciplines to discuss literature and to present original research on issues of poverty, inequality and disparity, as well as raising awareness about poverty and inequality among graduate students who have not yet given consideration to the topic. We define poverty and inequality broadly to include both domestic and international concerns, a wide range of research methodologies, and many different perspectives.

 

IGPI is funded by Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshops
