This conversation will provide a forum for rich dialogue about evidence-based solutions to some of the most pressing issues facing today's vulnerable youth. Hosted by the Global Center for the Development of the Whole Child (GC-DWC), this panel conversation features professor and director of the GC-DWC, Neil Boothby, in conversation with Dr. Carrie Quinn, pediatrician and executive director of the Mount Sinai Parenting Center and co-chair of the University of Notre Dame’s (UND) For Good Initiative, and Wendy Angst, professor and director of the Powerful Means Initiative and Impact Consulting Minor at UND’s Mendoza College of Business. All three panelists serve children and their families in different vocational capacities, but their work is aligned by the science of early childhood development (ECD) and how it complements Catholic social teaching. The conversation will touch on various themes such as Notre Dame’s unique position to be a strong agent of global change in unifying scientific knowledge with the wisdom of the church, strategies to bolster ECD programs for children enduring crisis, and how Catholic Social Teaching underscores the imperative to cater to marginalized children, while scientific insights guide the methodologies to achieve this. The event’s conversation will provide a forum for rich dialogue about evidence-based solutions to some of the most pressing issues facing today’s vulnerable youth. Immediately following the panel, please join us for fellowship, refreshments, and conversation.

The original Broadway production of Annie opened in 1977 to instant success. Soon after that in 1982, the somewhat surprising choice of John Huston (The Maltese Falcon, The Night of the Iguana) directed the film adaptation. After a standard made-for-TV-Disney remake in 1999, the franchise updated the musical for this adaptation in 2014. For example, it's now set in Harlem, Daddy Warbucks becomes Will Stacks (Jamie Foxx), and the Depression Era is swapped out for the mid-2010s tech boom. The musical's bones, however, largely remain. Annie (Quvenzhané Wallis) resides at Miss Hannigan's (Cameron Diaz) orphanage with an optimism far beyond what her means should support. A chance encounter with Stacks, a mobile phone mogul running for Mayor of New York City, begins one of the most famous Algeresque Broadway stories ever. GET TICKETS!  

Made by a Palestinian from Lyd and a Jewish American, this documentary provides much-needed context for this moment, as it goes deep into the history of the Nakba from the perspective of Palestinians who survived. As the film cuts between fantastical and documentary realities, it ultimately leaves the viewer questioning what future should prevail. The film imagines an alternate reality where Palestine was never occupied and Palestinians of all religions (Muslims, Christians, and Jews) live in a liberated Palestine. Narrated by Palestinian actress Maisa Abd Elhadi who personifies the city, the viewer is guided through the lifespan of a five-thousand-year-old city and its residents. GET TICKETS
