8th Annual National Community College Seminar Application
This seminar is designed to support faculty (full and part-time) and administrators as they strive to develop relevant and innovative approaches to teaching about global conflict and peacebuilding. The program seeks to bring together a multidisciplinary array of community college professionals in order to support their efforts with students.
Since 2013, an annual gathering of educators and students interested in the critical
role that community colleges play in higher education has taken place in Washington,
DC to learn, share, and experience on a range of contemporary topics including those
related to peacebuilding, conflict, human rights, social justice, peace education,
international affairs, and nonviolence. Due to the current pandemic, this year’s seminar
will be held virtually by Zoom.
The seminar will be held in a virtual format on three consecutive Fridays and Saturdays
from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The seminar will feature 12 – 45 minute
sessions. Many will focus on social justice and public health issues within a peacebuilding
context.
