Stephen Michael Apatow, singer, songwriter, has orchestrated the International Arts Integration into Education initiative to promote the arts as a vehicle for solution oriented strategic planning and development across the globe.
Following the completion of two national grassroots humanitarian projects across the United States in 1990 and 1993, he founded the nonprofit organization Humanitarian Resource Institute in 1994 to serve as "a bridge for unmet needs to untapped resources," via optimization of problem solving and analysis, development of effective communication networks that reach key decision makers in appropriate demographics and real time communication capability to support dialogue, consensus building and action.
Today, the Humanitarian University Consortium serves as (1) an international community of scholars, (2) a bridge between Humanitarian Resource Institute and the international academic community, (3) a think tank in support of the United Nations programs and (4) the promotion of higher learning through both traditional and distance education.
Member: American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP), in support of ASCAP, BMI & SESAC collaboration.
