- International Justice (U)

Solving Global Problems
At Boston Nexus for Global Studies, we believe that the world’s most urgent challenges — from climate change and forced migration to conflict, inequality, and disinformation — demand collaborative, cross-border solutions. Our work brings together diverse voices from academia, policy, and civil society to generate informed ideas, foster critical debate, and drive action. By connecting global insight with local impact, we aim to shape a more just, peaceful, and sustainable world.
