About Tushi Patel
I am a second-year MSW student at the University of Chicago’s Crown Family School, specializing in the Clinical track and the Kiphart Global Scholars Program. My research examines how climate events and migration disrupt education accessibility and child development, particularly for displaced communities. I aim to bridge policy and practice to create sustainable, community-driven solutions that support children’s learning and well-being amid environmental and social stressors.
