Summer 2024 will be a significant time, from the summer Olympics and Paralympics going on in Paris, the 60th anniversary of Freedom Summer with special events planned to commemorate 1964 and NASA will be prepping for a September trip to the Moon.
In addition, in 2024, 49% of the world’s population, including 64 countries will be voting for new leadership. To quote Time magazine “ 2024 is not an election year. 2024 is the election year.
For 10 weeks this summer, Dr. Lia Howard will be leading a team of seven Penn undergraduates on trips throughout the state, across at least 57 counties conversing with Pennsylvanians, putting skills and dispositions of political empathy into direct practice. In short, Political Empathy Lab endeavors to better understand our fellow Pennsylvanians through better conversations with them. Travel with us for Political Empathy Lab Summer 2024!
