Our Mission
The PACS mission is intentionally broad; reflecting the founders’ desire to focus scholarly attention on questions surrounding philanthropy, civil society, and social change. PACS-sponsored courses and seminars engage students and scholars from across campus in discussing core issues facing the sector, building a common frame of reference that enables conversation across disciplines. This mission also provides the Center with the flexibility to attract faculty and students with diverse and ever-changing research interests.
PACS is a program of the Institute for Research in the Social Sciences and the Haas Center for Public Service.

The PACS Center seeks to expand and enhance research on philanthropy and civil society. We think about questions related to civic engagement and institutional form that speak to fundamental research questions in the humanities, social sciences, engineering, law, medicine, education and beyond. To further these intellectual goals, the Center offers PhD Research Fellowships and is now accepting applications for the 2010-2011 academic year.
