Join CU Engage on April 23, from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. in UMC 415-417 for听Conversations on Ethical and Equitable Community Engagement.听Beth Osnes, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Theatre and Dance who has extensive experience collaborating with community groups, will share the story of her path in coming to understand best practices for ethical and equitable community engagement.
She will then lead the group through a creative framework to:
- identify our values (individually and collectively) that are the foundation of community engagement;
- critique models of community engagement we are trying to move beyond;
- imagine the new model for engagement we hope to achieve;
- devise actions that can move us from the old model to the new model.听
Together we will consider these actions, anticipate likely obstacles, and generate solutions. A lively conversation will be facilitated that allows participants to share their experiences and goals for doing engaged work that benefits both our students and our community partners.
This is the second in an ongoing series organized by CU Engage about ethical and equitable community engagement. (The first session was led by a team of students who presented a talk focused about the community engagement experiences and perspectives of CU 麻豆影院 Students of Color).
All are welcome.
