The Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University invited ICT4Peace’s Daniel Stauffacher to join its community as an affiliate in the 2014-2015 academic year.
“The incoming class of Berkman fellows, associates, and affiliates brings together an extraordinary group of thinkers, explorers, researchers, creators, bridge-builders, movers, and shakers from various disciplines and different parts of the world” saidUrsGasser, Berkman’s Executive Director and Professor of Practice at Harvard Law School. “Collectively, theyreflect the breadth and depth of a rapidly evolving Internet & society research agenda and form part of an expanding human and institutional network focused on such issues. We’re thrilled to work with such a diverse, talented, inspired, and committed group of colleagues and friends over the next academic year and beyond.”The diverse class of fellows will primarily work in Cambridge, MA alongside Berkman Directors and staff, and will serve as key instigators within the vibrant research community. Honoring the networked ethos central to Berkman, faculty associates and affiliates from institutions the world over will actively collaborate with the Berkman community through an array of channels. These relationships, as well as the countless fruitful engagements with alumni, partners, students, interns, and other colleagues, are fundamental to the Berkman Center’s work and identity, and serve to increase the capacity of the field and generate opportunities for lasting impact.
