Applied Anthropology

Applied anthropology is the practical application of anthropological methods and insights to address real-world problems. It involves using knowledge about human behavior, cultures, and social practices to inform policy, improve community welfare, and enhance cultural understanding. Applied anthropologists often work in diverse fields such as public health, education, urban planning, and international development. By collaborating with communities and stakeholders, they aim to create effective solutions that are culturally sensitive and contextually relevant, ultimately helping to improve the lives of people and societies.
