Bard Prison Initiative Expands to Include International Partnerships
Building on years of work supporting and cultivating college-in-prison programs across the United States, this summer the Bard Prison Initiative expanded its programmatic support internationally, formalizing partnerships with universities and affiliated programs in Africa, Europe, and across the Americas. In July, BPI issued 11 capacity-building grants to new and existing programs and began growing a larger community-of-practice with 21 programs across 14 nations and six continents, including educators from Argentina, South Africa, Brazil, Jamaica, Trinidad, Australia, Italy, Mexico, Tanzania, the United Kingdom, and beyond. This critical expansion of BPI's work is made possible due to an investment by and partnership with the Open Society University Network (OSUN).
