Event Details
At a moment of intense social and political upheaval and uncertainty, how can schools prepare children to be active participants in their communities? How can building connections between the classroom and community enhance our ability to live together in diverse societies and learn from and with each other? Grounded in the belief that children are not just future citizens, but are citizens of the here and now, this workshop explores innovative ways in which children and adolescents can develop civic agency through voice, dialogue, and listening. The workshop will support educators working with learners from pre-K through secondary school as well as with all ages of adult learners.
