Eight universities from around the world have come together to form the Global Humanities Alliance, which seeks to raise the profile of and improve the social and political impact of the humanities. The University of Toronto is one of the eight founding universities that came together to sign a letter of intent in Manchester, UK earlier this month. Under the letter of intent, the alliance members have agreed to explore activities such as collaborative research projects, global classrooms, and faculty and student exchanges. The alliance is creating working groups that will focus on four core themes: Decolonizing knowledge, digital transformations, public humanities, and sustainability and climate change.
