Workshops

Workshops will be presented by campus teams from across the state. Each team will present an issue and how they are addressing the issue in their community. Workshop partcipants will then help build a list of additional actions to address the issue in the state, country, or internationally. Workshops will end with an action planning session for individual campus and cross-campus collaborative work.

Workshops will be focused on our most critical community needs including:

  • the environment and clean energy
  • healthcare
  • higher education access
  • homelessness and housing
  • hunger
  • immigration
  • inter-cultural communication on campus
  • K-12 education
  • sustainability
  • voter education and registration
