Robert Barsky has received the Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Center writing residency, which takes place in Bellagio, Italy, from March-April.

According the foundation:

  • For nearly 60 years, the Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Center has enabled the world’s brightest minds and most ambitious decision makers to discover and realize the greatest opportunities to address the world’s toughest challenges.
  • It has been the catalyst for transformative ideas, collaborations, programs, and commitments from public health and economic development to agriculture, science, and the environment since 1959.
  • Through its support of scholars, artists, policymakers, and practitioners from around the world, the Bellagio Center introduces participants to equally accomplished peers from other fields whom they might never have the opportunity to meet. The Center has helped to forge collaborations between a wide range of thinkers and creators, and been a life-changing experience for innovators who have gone on to shape the world in important ways.
