Kohn Professors
The heart of the collaborative: a cohort of preeminent scholars who together will tackle structural inequalities and improve lives—while training the next generation of leaders in social policy.
Kohn Scholars
The Kohn Collaborative currently supports two Kohn Scholars, as part of the Ford School’s partnership to support Rackham Master’s Awards. They are chosen for their outstanding qualifications and promise for future leadership in the field of social policy.
Kohn policy impact
The collaborative will also support seed grants and the dissemination, networking, and advocacy work required to produce lasting policy impact.
