Center for Global Ethnography is launched at IRiSS

IRiSS is pleased to announce the launch of its newest research lab - the Center for Global Ethnography (CGE). The Center is a collaboration between IRiSS and the Department of Anthropology. 

The mission of CGE is threefold: to convene scholars from multiple disciplines interested in ethnographic research, to host multidisciplinary conversations on ethnographic research, and to train graduate students in fieldwork methods.

Co-founders Sharika Thiranagama and Sylvia Yanagisako of the Anthropology department sought to fill a need in the Stanford intellectual space and provide specialized services to graduate students interested in ethnographic research. Both Thiranagama and Yanagisako are Faculty Fellows at IRiSS for the 2019-2020 academic year.
