CLOSUP Past Conferences
CLOSUP sponsors occasional research conferences on topical policy issues. Although the format and purpose of each conference is unique, these conferences generally are designed to bring together researchers from across the University, and to host scholars as well as policymakers and practitioners from off campus, to address major policy issues of the day. These conferences help integrate University of Michigan researchers with policymakers and practitioners, in part to help inform research with perspectives from the field, and in part to help inform policymaking with the latest knowledge from the academic universe.
