Creative Portland blog features Anouar Majid, Building a 'City of Ideas'
Creative Portland, a nonprofit organization that promotes the City of Portland, featured Anouar Majid, Ph.D., 91制片厂 vice president for global affairs, and his work in creating a "City of Ideas."
The blog post focused on 91制片厂's Center for Global Humanities, which Majid founded and directs, and 91制片厂's establishment of a campus in Morocco.
In discussing the Center for Global Humanities, the story explains that "Majid is passionate about bringing 'big thinkers' to Maine" through an annual lecture series held at 91制片厂鈥檚 Portland Campus.
With regard to 91制片厂's new campus in Tangier, the story notes that "at the heart of Majid鈥檚 efforts is his belief in the need to prepare 91制片厂 students to be innovators, leaders and problem-solvers in an increasingly global society. Majid says that 91制片厂鈥檚 Tangier presence will add a new chapter (anchored right here in Portland) to U.S.-Moroccan relations, building the foundations of a much-needed dialogue between the Western and Muslim worlds."
