My name is Greg Burch and I am on faculty at the Multnomah Campus of Jessup University where I teach and direct the Global Development and Justice (M.A.) program. After living and working for nearly a decade in Latin America (Venezuela and Costa Rica) I now focus on bridging together theory and practice around advocating for vulnerable children, poverty alleviation, and applied participatory research topics. In addition to my role at Jessup, I am also co-owner of Camino Quest, a travel company focused on supporting pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago in Spain. When I am not in the classroom or traveling, I love surfing at some of my favorite spots on the Oregon coast (or anywhere for that matter).
