A “Life Course” Approach Breaks Down Silos to Strengthen Social Justice

I am just concluding almost a month working from Atlantic’s offices in Ireland.  Among the many terrific experiences I’ve had was a visit to the National University of Ireland, Galway (NUIG), where last week my colleagues and I met with the faculty of the Life Course Institute.  The Institute, established with Atlantic’s support, is an innovative effort to advance an integrated approach to research on policy and services for older people, children and families, and people with disabilities.
