The annual Center for International Studies Summer Teacher Institute brings educators, researchers, and professionals together to explore various comparative and transnational issues of global significance.

The 2012 interdisciplinary 3-day institute explored the concept of global food security. Faculty, staff, and graduate students from the University of Chicago and other educational institutions from around the country spoke on the challenges to providing all people with physical, social, and economic access to sufficient, nutritious food. Intended primarily for elementary through community college educators, but open to all interested parties, the Institute addressed each theme through a series of presentations and discussions of curriculum development.
