The Haverford Innovations Program (HIP) encourages and supports creative and strategic thinking around a problem, a need, a question, or simply an interest. The goal is to find new solutions and opportunities for entrepreneurial projects and paths of learning.

Hipolito Salazar '23, Emma Castiblanco '21, Daniela Moreira '23, and Bilikisu Hanidu '23 participated in the Techstars Latinx Startup Weekend, thanks to support from HIP. Emma and Daniela's project, Make-Believe, a mobile makerspace for STEM education in Philadelphia elementary schools, won third place at the event.

The Center for Peace and Global Citizenship is a flourishing nexus of social responsibility, civic engagement, and global peace work, both on campus and in the greater community.

As part of the Human Movement, Inclusivity, and Our Region film series, the CPGC and the Gender and Sexuality Studies Program will be screening Because of the War, a documentary that centers on several women peacemakers in Liberia who are now Philadelphia residents.

Haverford College Named Top Fulbright Producer

Five Fords earned Fulbrights for the 2019–2020 year, putting the College in the company of only 43 other undergraduate institutions across the country with the highest number of student grants.

"Our Fulbright students’ excellent preparation across the liberal arts and within their majors provided an outstanding foundation for their current global research." — President Wendy Raymond

Five members of the Haverford Class of 2019—(from left) Justin Otter, Seanna Viechweg, Danielle Jacobsen, Gabriel Braun, and Alexandra Corcoran—were selected for Fulbright Student Awards last spring.
