The American Anthropological Association (AAA) Committee on Public Policy (CoPP) has established the AAA Anthropology in Public Policy Award, to honor anthropologists whose work has had a significant, positive influence on the course of government decision-making and action. Public policy is broadly defined to include measures created by any level of government and addressing the full range of contemporary human problems.
You are cordially invited to participate in an information session that will take place at the AAA 2012 Annual Meeting in San Francisco . The meeting will take place Thursday, November 15, from 12:15 – 1:30 pm in Room Continental 2 in the Hilton.
