We are so happy to announce that this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award goes to Professor Dawn Chatty! We, Allison and Joana, would like to express our thanks and appreciation for Dawn – as young and now older scholars, Dawn has been a continual inspiration. Her work and life demonstrate what it means to be a lifelong scholar. From networking academics around the world, embodying the connection between theory and practice of development, and speaking from the heart regarding refugees worldwide, Dawn has set an example of excellence for us all. Dawn, we are deeply influenced and grateful for your scholarship and friendship.
Thank you and congratulations! Allison and Joana
