Want to challenge injustices and inequalities in the world around you? Do you wonder what can be done to really address social issues like educational inequalities, homelessness, and environmental contamination? Join other UM students and staff from the Center for Engaged Academic Learning and the Ginsberg Center for Community Service and Learning in order to discuss how to dismantle these injustices at their roots.

Through activities and discussions, you will have the opportunity to examine various forms of injustice and reflect on the root causes of a particular social issue that is relevant to your community engagement interests. Additionally, you will be able to practice the skill of recognizing the root causes of inequalities and developing strategies to address these injustices through working with a team to respond to scenarios. RSVP here by Thursday, March 17th: https://docs.google.com/a/umich.edu/forms/d/1LfEcUPA3RctJjoMmJz6OgSl0bW7VSN-90DTfjTt7B7Y/viewform

The Learning from the Community Workshop Series supports students who are interested in community service, advocacy, activism, and social justice. Participants gain knowledge of the root causes behind social issues, and the skills to work with others across social and cultural differences to support positive social change. Participants have the chance to learn from professionals from local community organizations and from their fellow U-M student leaders. Learn more here: ginsberg.umich.edu/article/workshops
