The CIE was the winner of the 2019 General Anthropology Division’s New Directions Group Award
“The GAD New Directions Award calls attention to the myriad ways anthropologists are expanding anthropological perspectives in the twenty-first century. It recognizes the accomplishments of both individuals and groups/collectives across diverse media and formats as forms of public anthropology. Common to these is the responsible presentation of anthropological information for a larger public beyond the academy, as well as a demonstrated commitment to ethical considerations and methodological rigor.
The GAD New Directions Award is offered in two categories—Group and Individual—to recognize work that presents anthropological perspectives to publics beyond the academy across diverse forms of media, with methodological rigor and ethical engagement.”

A Guide to the CIE’s website
The CIE website is organized into seven autonomous Nodes, each convened and moderated by a CIE Co-Curator or member responsible for coordination and liaison with other CIE Co-Curators and members. Each node includes members who together decide what activities the node undertakes. It is within these nodes that most of CIE’s activities take place. Visit each node to find out what new projects are emerging.
