Humanitarianism Conference, June 14

Registration is now open for the Jesuit Universities Humanitarian Action Network (JUHAN) conference from June 14-16 on the University of Scranton campus. The conference is designed to be of interest to students, staff, and faculty.

We continue to accept proposals for breakout session that address the promotion of human welfare, broadly speaking, as well as those that address our conference theme of "Health and Humanitarianism.” Research does not have to speak specifically to health care related issues. Community-based learning projects are usually great fits too. Solo or group submissions from students, staff, or faculty are highly encouraged. In addition to breakout sessions, we have an exciting list of plenary speakers who will address humanitarian crises from different disciplinary and career angles. They will not only provide thoughts on what is happening around the world today, but they will share their insights into what types of skills and experiences graduates need to address these ever-more complicated humanitarian crises.
