On October 5, 2007 the Institute of Human Development and Social Change was formally launched and introduced to the New York University campus with a "kickoff" conference held at the Kimmel Center of University Life. Featured at the conference were three world-renowned scholars (one economist, one sociologist, one psychologist), each paired with two in-house discussants from NYU departments, across Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Wagner School of Public Service, and Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development.
