CHANGE IS IN THE WORKS AT HRAF.

In September 2017,  Christiane Cunnar relocated to Germany after more than 20 years of dedicated service at HRAF in New Haven. Her considerable talents will be greatly missed by all. Thanks for all your hard work, Chris!

We've also gained a new face. For 2017-2018, Alissa Jordan will be at the historic HRAF building at Yale University, engaged in Media, Anthropology, and Teaching endeavors. Alissa is a multimedia socio-cultural anthropologist who received her PhD in 2016 from the University of Florida. Contact Alissa with inquiries, comments, or exciting research news at alissa.jordan@yale.edu.
