“At DMI, I further developed my analytical framework for thinking about the relationship between policy, politics, and social justice. I learned that in order to critically engage in the political process, progressives must fight for values and viable strategies for change. With the kind of applied knowledge I gained at the Summer Institute, I am now able to envision in more concrete terms my potential role(s) in the world of public policy.”

—Nabanita Pal , DMI Scholar
