Economic Human Rights: It’s Time for a New Social Contract

The Community Engagement Center in Homewood welcomes guest Cathy Albisa, co-founder of the National Economic and Social Rights Initiative (NESRI), for a talk titled Economic Human Rights: It’s Time for a New Social Contract. Presented by the University of Pittsburgh’s Department of Sociology, the event is part of NESRI’s nationwide call for a New Social Contract that would defend our economy, democracy, and climate from threats posed by greed-based development that prioritizes economic growth over the public good.
