Ambitious Young Students Launch “ENGAGE” Think-Tank
Seven determined undergraduates have recently launched ENGAGE, a student-run think tank at the University of Pennsylvania.
ENGAGE members have identified seven areas of interest for their community-engaged research. Immigrant entrepreneurship is one of the selected topics. Others include gun violence, healthcare, poverty, and voter participation.
Take a look at ENGAGE’s introductory report (pdf), published this summer.
Interested in learning more? ENGAGE member Alexa Salas, whose family hails from Mexico, will be conducting on-the-ground research with immigrant entrepreneurs in Philadelphia this fall.
