Associate Professor Blanca Ramos traveled to Peru this summer to meet with faculty and administrators at four Peruvian universities to continue exploring collaborative research initiatives with UAlbany's School of Social Welfare. Ramos, along with Dean Katharine Briar-Lawson and professors Bonnie Carlson and Mary McCarthy, taught a course to Peruvian students interested in pursuing a Ph.D. in social welfare. Earlier this year, professors Armando Meras and Nora Grados visited UAlbany's School of Social Welfare to explore and evaluate programs that can be adapted to the needs of their home country. UAlbany faculty across disciplines who are interested in exploring potential research and information exchange activities with Peruvian faculty are invited to join this project.
