Hollybush Institute for Global Peace and Security


Welcome to the Hollybush Institute at Rowan University

The Hollybush Institute for Global Peace and Security grapples with global issues by grounding them in historical perspectives. We sponsor lectures featuring renowned scholars, screen historically relevant films, and promote research in the Hollybush Summit Archives. The Institute aims to be the foremost center for the advancement of global scholarship in South Jersey, and we would love for you to be a part of it. We invite you to join us as a scholar, community member, or student at any of our events.  Just as Lyndon Johnson and Alexei Kosygin realized back in 1967, sometimes you need to come to Glassboro to see the world. 

You can contact us at hollybushinstitute@rowan.edu to be kept informed about future events.
