2016年秋季

The CoSS Dean’s 研讨会 for 2016年秋季 was held on Wednesday, October 26, 2016. 四个 CoSS faculty—Professor 杰森•道格拉斯, Professor Dayana Salazar, Professor Joshua Troncoso, and Professor 露丝威尔逊—presented their research under the overarching theme “Mitigating Inequities Faced by Minority Communities: Challenges, Opportunities, and Solutions”.

By studying a wide range of marginalized, minority and often low-income communities, presentations in this symposium identify the inequalities faced by such communities, suggest opportunities to address the inequities, and research real-world mitigation 措施. The research methods employed are as diverse as the communities studied—ethnographic research by Prof. Wilson to study Somalis in 硅谷, mixed methods and economic analysis by Prof. Troncoso on the state and future of on-demand/platform work, mixed methods (spatial analysis, community mapping, and interviews) by Prof. 道格拉斯, examine unequal access to green space in South Los Angeles, and meta-analysis by Prof. Salazar to showcase effectiveness of several community-based projects that serve Latino/a communities around 菠菜网lol正规平台 campus.
