There is so much wisdom in our Colorado community and we at PeaceJam are excited to create a space to share that wisdom with our conference attendees who are passionate about social change and creating a more peaceful world.
Our request for workshop proposals for this year's 2017 PeaceJam Slam is now open. For over 21 years our organization has provided an opportunity for conference attendees in middle and high school to gain skills and insights into innovative ways of addressing the most pressing issues in their communities. This years' event will take place on Saturday, November 4th, 2017 at Manual High School.
We invite you to submit a workshop proposal that will empower our youth in the Rocky Mountain region through knowledge and tools to become influential peacebuilders in their communities. There will be two workshop sessions on Saturday the 4thl. We are offering a modest honorarium as a thank you for your service. Lunch will be provided for all facilitators.
There will be two 75 minutes workshops. Please prepare your workshop for a group between 20 and 30 middle and high school participants or between 20 to 40 adults. The exact number will be confirmed once we've received participant registrations. Each accepted proposal will be asked to provide a detailed outline. We will send exact session timeslots and room locations once all workshops have been confirmed.
WORKSHOPS NEED TO:
- Be interactive and include diverse viewpoints.
- Provide students with practical skills to become agents of social change.
- Help students learn about the root cause of issues in their local or global community.
- Relate to at least one of our Billion Acts Focus Areas.
