Overview
For Each and Every Child (EEC) is a nascent initiative housed by the Chief Justice Earl Warren Institute on Law and Social Policy at the University of California, Berkeley; it seeks to implement the findings of the congressionally-chartered, national Commission on Equity and Excellence’s report--For Each and Every Child: A Strategy for Education Equity and Excellence--by: developing outreach and fostering engagement to expand consensus, establishing hubs for informing and supporting a movement, and consulting on policy engineering and technical assistance. EEC will convene a couple of day-long, invitation-only roundtables to identify in detail the implications of Deeper Learning initiatives from an equity perspective. The goals will be to establish a consensus view on whether and how Deeper Learning and equity concerns are interrelated or aligned and how Deeper Learning can be implemented in a way that supports the goals of the equity movement.

Grants to this Grantee
for the Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity
A grant to the University of California at Berkeley will support the ongoing work of the Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity, the home of this research and engagement at the university. The center focuses on both the “cyber” and “security” components of cybersecurity, grounding efforts in a robust, flexible, and evolving understanding of the “possibility” space of cybersecurity. Research will focus on possible security scenarios and explore the technical, political, and economic intersection of these potential futures. The aim of this approach is to foster interdisciplinary collaboration within the center as well as to add diversity to the cybersecurity conversation. The center brings together academics from the School of Information, the School of Law, Computer Science, the Goldman School of Public Policy, and the College of Engineering, among others. It also engages external stakeholders in all facets of this work, including in outreach efforts. (Strategy: Talent Pipeline)
