Climate, Labor, and Social Justice: Intersectional Change through Feminist Popular Education

Climate, Labor, and Social Justice: Intersectional Change through Feminist Popular Education In-Person

Popular education employs an intersectional emphasis on community justice, feminist critique, and economic liberation to drive social change.

A team that includes global experts in popular education with over 30 years of experience each in sharing and utilizing feminist popular education practices and principles will engage with attendees using popular education techniques to enable all to visualize social change in the context of 'just transitions'--the impact of climate change on labor and economic justice--and will equip attendees to realize equitable change in their own lives and careers beyond their time at UMass Amherst. 

This event is open to all. Attendees will benefit from interacting with these experienced, highly synergistic, and collaborative educators and activists and will gain insights and tools for grassroots policy advocacy and organizing efforts and for building deep and complex global and local analyses.

Lunch will be provided.

*Please note that there will be photography and video recording at this event.
