Center for Urban Education, University of Pittsburgh
Join us for panel discussions, study groups, workshops, and other engaging conversations that examine this year's theme, "The Liberation of Cities: Urban Education in Pittsburgh."
With this theme, we look more closely at the project of urban education through liberatory praxes and situate this knowledge within City of Pittsburgh contexts – sociopolitical, economic, and historical.

Most religious traditions include textual teachings and normative ethical imperatives to welcome the refugee and provide humanitarian aid to the vulnerable stranger and displaced neighbor. These religious norms correlate to secular theoretical arguments about mutual reciprocity and positive moral duties to render aid to the refugee. Yet moral responses to refugees and displaced persons are under threat from both within religious communities and from political discourse, particularly in the United States and Europe.
