Documenting Globalization

Globalization on the Ground is a project of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Nancy Benson, from the UIUC College of Communications, and Patrick Keenan, from the UIUC College of Law, created the project. The project's work is supported by the Human Rights Clinic of the College of Law, the College of Communications, the Center for African Studies, and the Center for Global Studies.

The goal of the project is to document the many ways that globalization affects the lives of ordinary communities around the world.  To do this, we try to let people tell their stories in their own voices.
