PLACE FORWARD Fellows Showcase The Armory

A few weeks ago, PLACE FORWARD fellows from the Mailman School of Public Health came to The Armory to learn more about our work and impact on the community. Folashade Wilson and Janelle Micaela S. Panganiban put together this video and shared it at their 2024 Equity Showcase.

As fellows, there were responsible for developing videos highlighting organizations in Washington Heights. They presented their project and shared a short video that compiled special moments from each interview. 

Through the FORWARD Fellows program, the Office of the Dean provides resources for academic departments, research units, and school offices to collaborate with student Fellows to design and implement initiatives fighting oppression and white supremacy. The program focuses on the professional development of fellows around anti-racist organizational change, concepts and tools for advancing racial equity in organizations. 

Special thanks to Janelle Panganiban, Folashade Wilson, Peter Lewis, and Mailman School of Public Health Digital Learning Studio for showcasing the work we do!
