Brief presentations and moderated discussion will focus on how applied anthropologists navigate their careers and unique skillsets within nonacademic and non-anthropological settings. Alumni will identify their programs’ long-term outcomes, while reflecting on how their respective programs prepared them for the application of anthropology and influenced their career growth. Furthermore, alumni will discuss the challenges and benefits of being an applied anthropologist in various career settings, including labor organizing, public health, genetic medicine, affordable housing, sustainability and conservation, and natural resource management.

Students face challenges as they navigate through the U.S. educational system. National culture, institutional context, and local discourses spur inequality and comprise hurdles for students, families, and educators. Anthropologists working in these areas use a variety of research methods to describe factors that affect matriculation of groups. Such studies inform on topics from undergraduates’ persistence in their declared majors to the social and emotional climate children face in elementary school. Applications promise to arm individuals with improved approaches to creating better climates and addressing causes of educational inequality. This panel highlights implications of applied anthropological research in school equity.

Community Resilience in the Face of Natural and Manmade Disasters: Stories from the Field and the Role of Social Scientists. The increasing number and intensity of natural and manmade disasters have created challenges to the sustainability of local communities across the globe. The record number of climate disasters recently, as well as critical manmade disasters in communities far and wide, have resulted in widespread tragedy, but these events have also produced substantial learning opportunities and the emergence of positive community adaptations. This collection of papers and reflections examines recent stories of community resilience in the face of devastating climate and manmade events and questions the role of social scientists in understanding recovery experiences and developing adaptation strategies for the future.
