  <title><![CDATA[Call for proposals: AGREC 2020-21]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>We are delighted to announce the launch of a new and exciting initiative,&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://atlantaglobalstudies.gatech.edu/AGREG" title="https://atlantaglobalstudies.gatech.edu/AGREG">The Atlanta Global Research and Education Collaborative (AGREC)</a></strong>&nbsp;and funding available through this new collective.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Housed within the&nbsp;<a href="https://atlantaglobalstudies.gatech.edu/" title="https://atlantaglobalstudies.gatech.edu/">Atlanta Global Studies Center (AGSC)</a>, AGREC is comprised of five universities:</p>

<ul>
	<li>AGSC, a partnership of&nbsp;<strong>Georgia Tech</strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Georgia State University</strong></li>
	<li><strong>Emory University</strong>&rsquo;s Office of Global Strategy and Initiatives&nbsp;</li>
	<li><strong>Agnes Scott College</strong>&rsquo;s SUMMIT Center for Global Learning and Leadership Development</li>
	<li><strong>Spelman College</strong>&rsquo;s Gordon Zeto Center for Global Education</li>
</ul>

<p>AGREC seeks to build and strengthen collaborative networks of multi-institutional scholars and practitioners to support global research and education initiatives in the Greater Atlanta region.</p>

<div>
<p><strong>Call for proposals:&nbsp;<em>Connecting globally while grounded at home (2020-2021)</em></strong></p>
</div>

<p><strong>Due: October 10, 2020</strong></p>

<p>AGREC invites scholars to submit collaborative projects across disciplines, institutions, and universities that address a need in our global and local communities. This call aims to address topics with a global connection while being grounded locally. Scholars and practitioners may examine a local and global problem in the form of research, workshop, forum, or suggest another approach by collaborating with an organization in Atlanta or a population group that has a global dimension.</p>

<p>Preference will be given to innovative, transformative collaborative research and education projects in global engagement with significant emphasis on their potential to develop new and strategic sustainable relationships among partners (e.g. universities, companies, NGOs, community organizations) and their impact on Atlanta communities.</p>

  <!--  TO DO: correct to not conflate categories and news room topics  -->
  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
