FSU Faculty and Students Join Poverty Relief Efforts in Haiti
FSU’s Center for the Advancement of Human Rights, Center for Global Engagement, and the Department of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Science have joined with Tallahassee-based nonprofit Better Universe and Citizens to help combat soil erosion in Haiti. The effort has the potential to vastly improve economic and living conditions.
Over the past four years, FSU student interns have overseen the organization of workshops and class lectures, while maintaining social media platforms and website data for the project. Students also have assisted with fundraising, research, translations, event planning and shipments of materials to Haiti.
