Making Progress on Essential Institutional Change
With its mission focused on, “advancing ethical, critical, aspirationally decolonial community-based learning and research for more just, inclusive, sustainable communities,” the Community-based Global Learning Collaborative is always interested in on-campus changes that create more significant space, resources, and understanding for ethical off-campus partnerships, research, education, and action.
We are therefore especially excited to announce another set of speakers for our upcoming institute at Haverford College, just outside Philadelphia: Stepping into the Work: Expanding understanding of global positionality, responsibility, and opportunity. The institute takes place November 10th and 11th. In addition to previously announced speakers, we will hear from:
Amy Anderson, Associate Provost for Global and Intercultural Affairs; Executive Director, Global and Intercultural Affairs Center at the University of Dayton
Samantha Brandauer, Associate Provost & Executive Director, Center for Global Study and Engagement at Dickinson College
Richard Kiely, Associate Vice Provost for Engagement and Land-Grant Affairs and Director, Academic Initiatives at Cornell University
on the topic of, “Dialogues, Learning Communities, and Rubrics: Journeys toward Institutional Change.”
Additionally, we are excited to be joined by Marisol Morales, Executive Director of the Carnegie Elective Classifications, who will present and facilitate on “Relationship-based Institutional Change.”
