Thank you to the more than 200 alumni, students, faculty, and friends who attended this phenomenal conference, Feb. 25-26, which ranged from in-depth panel discussions to live interviews with Duke alumni around the world to a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Peace Corps.
Duke in Depth: A World Together provided a great opportunity to explore global challenges – including world-changing trends in health, technology, religion, and the environment – and to consider the future of collaboration with developing countries. See all Duke in Depth weekend events(.pdf)
