Transnational Communities: Beyond the Immigration Debate
Thursday, April 30, 2009, 1:00–2:30pm ET

Join the Council on Foundations and Hispanics in Philanthropy for an exciting conversation examining the complex dynamics of transnational communities, using immigration from Mexico to North Carolina as a case study, and the role that foundations are playing in supporting them.

As the social, economic, political, and cultural impact of transnational communities – populations with economic and family ties in the U.S. and another country – continues to grow in importance, it is appropriate for the philanthropic sector to take a closer look and understand what is really happening, and explore the greater role it could play in contributing to positive outcomes in these communities.

Fee: Council and HIP members $0; Non-members $49
Sponsor: Council on Foundations and Hispanics in Philanthropy
