Presented by GW’s Institute for Socioeconomic Opportunity (ISEO), this day-long series of events brings together thought leaders, innovators, and community partners to take on the urgent challenges of our time.
For more than a decade, researchers at the George Washington University have collaborated with community leaders and lawmakers to develop solutions that drive systemic change. Using community-driven research and advocacy, ISEO is poised to create strategic partnerships that will help to scale this work.
From a dynamic panel on leadership in the age of AI, to a hands-on systems thinking seminar, to the official launch of ISEO, the day’s events spotlight initiatives designed to close gaps in health, wealth, and opportunity—creating lasting impact for generations to come.
