Roger Williams University's Center for Macro Projects and Diplomacy fosters the interdisciplinary formulation, design, demonstration and debate of large scale project proposals that can contribute to human progress through the improvement of world habitat. With invited leaders, faculty and students concentrating on clearly-defined issues of importance to the world community -- land, water, energy, food supplies, transportation, environment, housing, education, health, and heritage -- the Center annually will follow through on steps needed to design, display, debate, evaluate, test, and in appropriate cases, deploy undertakings of relevance and urgency. Kathleen Lusk Brooke particpated in the 2004 and 2005 programs.
