Annual Review 2020-2021

The Center's 2020-2021 Annual Review highlights our long-term project on human rights, social justice, and inequality, with a new focus on the past, present, and future of work. It outlines a number of events and collaborations that called for our sustained and deeper engagement with inequalities at every level, from our Fall 2020 colloquium, "Inequality, Labor, and Human Rights: The Future of Work" to the year-long activity of a number of research clusters that culminated in our Summer 2021 Pop-Up Institute, “Beyond the Future of Work: New Paradigms for Addressing Global Inequality.” The Institute provided a means for us to collaborate with nearly 70 academics, activists, labor organizers, and artists from around the world to bring a structural, interdisciplinary, and international lens to diverse forms of worker precarity.
